Ce rapport montre que les engagements mondiaux ne seront concrétisés que si les besoins particuliers des jeunes femmes et des jeunes hommes sont reconnus et que leurs droits sont pleinement exercés, respectés et préservés. Pour réduire le nombre de nouvelles infections au VIH chez les jeunes, parvenir aux objectifs plus larges d'égalité fixés par les OMD et inverser la tendance générale de l'épidémie de sida, les efforts en matière de prévention et de traitement du VIH doivent être adaptés aux besoins spécifiques des jeunes gens.

Imagine treatment 2.0. A radically simplified treatment platform that’s good for HIV prevention too!

This report provides the most up to date information on the HIV epidemic in the region in 2011. While the region has seen impressive gains—including a 20% drop in new HIV infections since 2001 and a three-fold increase in access to antiretroviral therapy since 2006—progress is threatened by an inadequate focus on key populations at higher risk of HIV infection and insufficient funding from both domestic and international sources.

This report provides findings from the rollout of the People Living with HIV Stigma Index (PLHIV Stigma Index) in nine countries in Asia and the Pacific (Bangladesh, Cambodia, China, Fiji, Myanmar, Pakistan, Philippines, Sri Lanka, Thailand). It provides the first large-scale regional comparison of standardized human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-related stigma indicators. The findings and interpretation represent an extraordinary effort by people living with HIV, organizations of people living with HIV, and supporting domestic and international agencies.

There is general agreement that strong community participation in the response to HIV, tuberculosis (TB) and malaria is essential to controlling these epidemics. In the AIDS response, community-based organizations (CBOs) and other NGOs have played a critical role. They have been key providers of prevention, treatment, care and support services and have worked to create the social, political, legal and financial environment needed to effectively respond to the epidemic

This report highlights the role that the Technical Support Facilities (TSF) have played in Africa and Asia to strengthen countries capacities to fund, plan, manage and coordinate effective, larger scale HIV programs. Established by UNAIDS in 2005, the TSFs have provided support to over 70 countries through 50,000 days of technical assistance and capacity development.

The transformation of HIV from almost certain death to a chronic condition for many people living with HIV in low- and middle-income countries is a significant public health achievement. By the end of 2010, 6.6 million people in low- and middle-income countries – 47% of the total number eligible – had access to antiretroviral therapy. This represents a dramatic increase from the 300,000 (2.7% of those eligible) on antiretroviral therapy in 2002.

Un nouveau rapport du Programme commun des Nations Unies sur le VIH/sida (ONUSIDA), qui paraît aujourd’hui, montre que l’année 2011 a changé la donne pour la riposte au sida, avec des progrès sans précédent en matière de science, de leadership politique et de résultats. Le rapport indique également que les nouvelles infections à VIH et les décès liés au sida sont tombés à leurs plus bas niveaux depuis le pic de l’épidémie.

This document seeks to analyse how LDCs have utilized the 2016 extension to facilitate the production and access to HIV and other medicines for their populations; discuss what can be done to maximize the opportunities provided by the current extensions; describe the potential implications of LDCs having to implement the TRIPS Agreement with respect to pharmaceuticals and test data protection; fill the gaps in the understanding of the process for further extension of the transition period for pharmaceutical products; and provide recommendations on how LDCs should proceed to seek further extensions.

This documents the extraordinary progress achieved over the past decade in the health sector response to HIV. Access to evidence-informed HIV prevention, testing and counselling, treatment and care services in low- and middle-income countries has expanded dramatically.
