The global AIDS epidemic is one of the greatest challenges facing our generation. AIDS is a new type of global emergency an unprecedented threat to human development requiring sustained action and commitment over the long term. As this report shows, the epidemic shows no sign of weakening its grip on human society. The AIDS crisis continues to deepen in Africa, while new epidemics are growing with alarming speed in Asia and Eastern Europe. No region of the world has been spared.While there is a pressing need for additional resources and commitment, this report also documents some of the success stories that have been achieved—by groups of people living with or affected by HIV, as well as by governments, nongovernmental organizations, business people and religious leaders.AIDS has been with us for more than 20 years. It will continue to challenge us for many decades to come. The most important lesson we have learned so far is that we can make a difference: we can prevent new infections, and we can improve the quality of care and treatment for people living with HIV.
