JOIN THE FIGHT
We must put people first to get the AIDS response back on track. We must end the social injustices that put people at risk of contracting HIV and that includes a fight for the right to healthcare.
There is no excuse for government to not invest fully for universal access to health. Barriers such as up-front user fees that lock people out of health must come down.
Men and women must have their human rights fully respected, and the criminalization and marginalization of gay men, transgender people, sex workers and people who use drugs must stop.
As we approach the end of 2020, the world is in a dangerous place and the months ahead will not be easy. Only global solidarity and shared responsibility will help us end the AIDS epidemic and guarantee the right to health for all.
