Leadership as a process of influence
UNAIDS - "Accelerating progress towards gender equality and the empowerment of women is fundamental to ending the AIDS epidemic. And it starts within UNAIDS. In 2018, UNAIDS released its Gender Action Plan 2018-2023 aimed at improving the effectiveness of UNAIDS by promoting women’s leadership across the organization and ensuring that all staff, women and men, are aware of the issues that increase women’s risk of HIV infection.
The first annual progress report of the Gender Action Plan 2018-2023 shows progress in reaching its targets although much remains to be done. “The Gender Action Plan is a tool for change,” according to Gunilla Carlsson, UNAIDS Executive Director, a.i. “Building on the impressive progress made over just the first year of its implementation, it is key to keep up the momentum and sustain achievements over time.” (Photo: H6 Partners/flickr, CC BY-NC-ND 2.0)
