West & Central Africa has reduced new HIV infections by 55% & AIDS-related deaths by 60% since 2010. But AIDS is not over.

HIV is a health condition — not a moral failing. People living with HIV can live long, healthy, dignified lives. Spread facts, not stigma. Undetectable = Untransmittable. #UequalsU #ZeroDiscrimination #EndAIDS

Is it still possible to #endAIDS by 2030? Yes! But only if the world comes together in solidarity to protect the progress won over the decades to meet the common goal of ending AIDS as a public health threat. The #GlobalAIDSStrategy2031 will help us get there. www.unaids.org/en/2026-2031...

New report by UNAIDS & @unitedgmh.bsky.social maps Global Fund investments in HIV & TB comorbidities across 100+ countries. While 97% prioritize at least one comorbidity, major funding & monitoring gaps remain. Stronger integrated, people-centred approaches are needed. unaids.org/en/resources...

From verbal harassment to exclusion from family and community life, far too many people living with HIV still face discrimination in their community. HIV-related stigma and discrimination put lives at risk. By putting #PeopleFirst, we can achieve #ZeroDiscrimination.

Intersecting forms of stigma, discrimination and criminalization deny sex workers the right to protect their health. Yet, 168 countries still criminalize some aspect of sex work. This International Sex Workers Rights Day, we call for the protection of their right to health.

Yesterday was #ZeroDiscriminationDay. But non-discrimination must apply every day. This year, @unaids.org stresses the discrimination faced by people living with and at risk of HIV. Germany advocates for ensuring access to health services and ending all forms of discrimination.

Ending AIDS by 2030 means removing discriminatory laws, funding community-led organizations, and protecting people's rights in health systems. The evidence is clear. Now it's time to act. #ZeroDiscriminationDay #PeopleFirst

Today is #ZeroDiscriminationDay! People living with & affected by HIV still face stigma and discrimination in healthcare centers, workplaces and communities. This blocks access to HIV services and put lives at risk. Putting #PeopleFirst is the only path to #ZeroDiscrimination.

Our latest data shows that globally 1.3 million people were newly infected with HIV in a year, a 40% reduction from 2010 📉 Despite the progress, we cannot afford to stop now. HIV prevention options must be accessible to all who need it!

The world is closer than ever to ending AIDS. But that progress is at dire risk of being lost. Together, we can still #endAIDS – if we act with urgency, unity and unwavering commitment.

Thanks to antiretroviral therapy, 24.1 million AIDS-related deaths have been averted since 1996👏 Equitable access to life-saving treatment is essential to ending AIDS by 2030.

When funding falls short, millions of people living with HIV face disrupted care, declining health, and for some, the risk of death.​ The world must come together to address the growing challenges threatening the HIV response.​ If we fail to act, we risk losing the chance to end AIDS.

Shared responsibility and global solidarity have been the foundation of the historic reductions in new HIV infections and AIDS-related deaths.​ This must continue!​ www.unaids.org/en/2025-worl...

With France’s support 🇫🇷 via L’Initiative, @unaids.org is assisting 🇰🇭🇱🇦🇹🇭🇻🇳 to transition to more sustainable financing based on reliable data and stronger community participation. Interview with Eamonn Murphy, UNAIDS Regional Director 👉 linitiative.expertisefrance.fr/en/eamonn-mu...

Germany steps up its support for @unaids.org with an additional €700,000, bringing our total contribution for 2025 to €8.4 million. Even in challenging times, Germany stands firmly with UNAIDS and supports a strong, sustainable & effective HIV response.

Great news! Brazil has received @who.int certification for eliminating mother-to-child transmission of HIV & syphilis. UNAIDS congratulates Brazil on this milestone, driven by universal healthcare, protection of rights and adequate & fair access to medicines. www.unaids.org/en/resources...

Thank you Germany for standing with UNAIDS and for your continued leadership in advancing the rights of LGBTQ+ communities worldwide. Your €8.4 million contribution in 2025 is deeply appreciated and brings us closer to ending AIDS as a public health threat. @genf.diplo.de

Programmes serving key populations are vital to slow new HIV infections and accelerate progress toward ending AIDS.​ But funding cuts are undermining these efforts, at a time when HIV is rising fastest among key populations.​ These services are lifelines. We must protect them.​

The ongoing reductions in international aid, and abrupt US funding cuts, have exposed how fragile the HIV response becomes when resources are withdrawn.​ We have the innovation, medicines, knowledge and expertise. What we need now is sustained global solidarity. www.unaids.org/en/2025-worl... ​

This #HumanRightsDay the global HIV response is facing its most challenging moment in decades. UNAIDS calls on global leaders to: - Reaffirm global solidarity - Uphold human rights - Strengthen community-led action unaids.org/en/resources...

People living with HIV deserve their full right to health, upheld every single day. On this #HumanRightsDay, listen to the voices at the heart of the HIV response as they share what human rights means to them⬇️ www.unaids.org/en/resources...

Every week, 4000 adolescent girls and young women in sub-Saharan Africa acquired HIV in 2024. ​Programmes that empower and support them are essential. ​ But in 2025, funding cuts wiped out many of these services. ​ Learn more: unaids.org/en/2025-worl...
