UNAIDS is leading the global effort to end AIDS as a public health threat by 2030 as part of the Sustainable Development Goals.
Since it started operations in 1996, UNAIDS has led and inspired global, regional, national and local leadership, innovation and partnership to ultimately consign HIV to history.
UNAIDS is a problem-solver. It places people living with HIV and people affected by the virus at the decision-making table and at the centre of designing, delivering and monitoring the AIDS response. It charts paths for countries and communities to get on the Fast-Track to ending AIDS and is a bold advocate for addressing the legal and policy barriers to the AIDS response.
UNAIDS provides the strategic direction, advocacy, coordination and technical support needed to catalyse and connect leadership from governments, the private sector and communities to deliver life-saving HIV services. Without UNAIDS, there would be no strategic vision for the AIDS response.
UNAIDS generates strategic information and analysis that increases the understanding of the state of the AIDS epidemic and progress made at the local, national, regional and global levels. UNAIDS produces data for impact—no major report, speech or policy initiative on HIV has been launched or made without referring to data collected and released by UNAIDS.
UNAIDS is a model for United Nations reform and is the only cosponsored Joint Programme in the United Nations system. It draws on the experience and expertise of 11 United Nations system Cosponsors and is the only United Nations entity with civil society represented on its governing body.
UNAIDS has helped to position, shape and scale up the response to HIV like no other organization, encouraging dialogue and bringing in communities that have been left out of decision-making. Without UNAIDS, the human rights of people living with HIV would have been held back and the voice of civil society would be heard far less often.
UNAIDS has transformed policy. UNAIDS has shaped public policy on HIV at the global, regional and national levels. It has mobilized investment for sound national policy using evidence, experience and political advocacy, built health and community systems, established legal frameworks and shaped public opinion towards creating healthy and resilient societies.
The UNAIDS Secretariat has offices in 70 countries, with 70% of its staff based in the field, and has a budget of US$ 140 million for 2018. The budget for the Joint Programme for 2018 is US$ 242 million.
UNAIDS IN VIETNAM UNAIDS’ support to Viet Nam dates back to 1996, the year of establishment of the organization. Since then, UNAIDS has grown both globally and in country as a leader of the response to HIV, and its support to the Government and people of Viet Nam has increased significantly. UNAIDS has been working with the National Assembly of Viet Nam and the National Committee for AIDS, Drugs and Prostitute Prevention and Control to provide on-going policy advice and technical assistance to the development of a conducive legal framework for HIV related issues, based on sound evidence and the human rights approach. UNAIDS commits to continue supporting Viet Nam in its efforts to achieve the ambitious targets of 90-90-90, toward ending AIDS as a public health threat in Viet Nam by 2030. Currently, UNAIDS is represented in Viet Nam by a Country Director who provides guidance to a technical team covering areas such as strategic information, strategic interventions, policy and coordination, community mobilisation and networking, and communications.
