Investing in innovative technology to foster HIV voluntary testing is key to
achieving the UNAIDS 90-90-90 targets by 2020 which are 90% of people
living with HIV will know their HIV status, 90% of people with diagnosed
HIV infection will receive antiretroviral treatment, and 90% of people receiving
antiretroviral treatment will have viral load suppression.
It is important to invest in youth-driven solutions and community-driven
innovations toward ending HIV/AIDS. Placing these populations at the center of
the fight address risks and vulnerabilities.
It is important to invest in innovative strategies to fight cervical cancer as a
comorbidity of HIV/AIDS.
There is a need to invest in community-based health education to address stigma
and discrimination related to HIV/AIDS.
