UNAIDS - Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS

Objet publié

This grant represents Canada’s long-term institutional support to the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS). UNAIDS uses these funds, along with other donors funding, to achieve its mandate. As the United Nation’s (UN) principal advocate for global action on HIV/AIDS, UNAIDS leads, strengthens and supports an expanded response aimed at preventing the transmission of HIV, providing treatment and care for people living with the disease, reducing the vulnerability of individuals and communities to HIV, and alleviating the epidemic’s impact worldwide. UNAIDS works with countries to develop their national AIDS strategies. Canada’s support to UNAIDS is also an important complement to Canada’s support to the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria.
