The global response to the HIV epidemic is at a crossroads. The emergency footing of the response over the past 25 years and the broad social mobilization of stakeholders have spearheaded remarkable action and results. Yet the hard-won gains are fragile and call for a renewed commitment and leadership by the United Nations system. Our joint efforts have produced encouraging results, but many challenges lie ahead.
In order to achieve further progress, it is essential to take steps to address specific gaps in the response to the epidemic as well as the social, political and structural constraints that limit results.
