Social media and UNAIDS

Around half of the world’s 2 billion Internet users have used some form of social media according to latest data. Africa has seen a 2357% growth in internet usage between 2000 and 2010 and Asia represents around 42% of the total internet population worldwide.

Social media tools hold huge potential to help the raise of awareness and mobilize the social action needed to turn the tide on the HIV epidemic. UNAIDS has therefore taken the best of the AIDS response—the vibrancy, the dedication, and the passion—online. Here’s how to connect with UNAIDS.
