The 2008 UNADIS Report on the Global AIDS Epidemic


UNAIDS (Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS) has published its new "Report on the global AIDS epidemic". The Report draws upon and publishes the best available data from countries and provides an overview and commentary on the epidemic and the international response.

The 2008 Report on the global AIDS epidemic emerges at the halfway mark between the 2001
Declaration of Commitment and the 2015 target of the Millennium Development Goals to reverse the epidemic by 2015.

The report documents considerable progress in many countries in addressing their national epidemics. Nevertheless, progress remains uneven and the epidemic’s future is still uncertain, underscoring the need for intensified action to move towards universal access to HIV prevention, treatment, care and support.

If you would like to know more about the current situation in the faith against this epidemic, you will find the 2008 Report at the following link:
