HIV/AIDS

The United Nations (UN) system shares a commitment to reversing the spread of the AIDS epidemic. As co-sponsor of UNAIDS, the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) recognizes that AIDS impacts countries’ progress towards achieving the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), particularly those goals pertaining to poverty, gender, education and child and maternal mortality. As such, UNDP's response to the AIDS epidemic stems from its human development, poverty reduction and governance mandates.

UNDP's annual report looks back at progress over the past fiscal year and looks ahead as the 2015 deadline for the Millennium Development Goals approaches.
