Communities Deliver: The Critical Role of Communities in Reaching Global Targets to End the AIDS Epidemics
PDF File Size: 1.01 MB | Download   
Communities were the first responders to HIV three decades ago, and they remain essential in advocating for a robust response to the epidemic, delivering services that can reach everyone in need and tackling HIV-related stigma and discrimination. Working alongside public health and other systems, community responses are critical to the success and sustainability of the global response to HIV. There is now wide recognition that community responses must play an increasing role in addressing the epidemic in the years ahead. The Strategic Investment Framework, published in 2011, identifies community responses as a “critical enabler” of service delivery. The Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS) has estimated that to achieve bold HIV treatment and prevention targets set in 2014, investments in community mobilization and services must increase more than threefold between 2015 and 2020 (1).
