GLOBAL HEALTH SECTOR STRATEGY ON HIV 2016–2021 TOWARDS ENDING AIDS
The international community has committed to ending the AIDS epidemic as a public health threat by 2030 – an ambitious target of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development
adopted by the United Nations General Assembly in September 2015.
Interim targets have been established for 2020. This strategy describes the health sector’s contribution towards the achievement of these targets. It outlines both what countries need to do and what WHO will do. If implemented, these fast-track actions by countries and by WHO will accelerate and intensify the HIV response in order for the “end of AIDS” to become a reality.
