Credit: UNICEFThis year’s World AIDS Day theme is “Take the rights path”, symbolizing that with human rights at the center and with communities leading, the world can end AIDS as a public health threat by 2030.
For World AIDS Day 2024, UNICEF is releasing a set of new publications:
1. 2024 Global Snapshot on HIV and AIDS — UNICEF’s 2024 Global Snapshot, released for World AIDS Day, offers a concise yet critical overview of the global HIV and AIDS landscape, focusing on children, adolescents, and pregnant women. This year’s report highlights data and insights that emphasize the urgent need to eliminate vertical transmission of HIV and ensure universal access to testing and treatment for children and adolescents.
2. 2024 Eastern and Southern Africa Regional Snapshot — a regional overview of HIV trends, including vertical transmission, testing, and treatment for children and adolescents, as well as gender disparities affecting adolescent girls and young women.
UNICEF’s Executive Director, Catherine Russell, has also shared a message to commemorate World AIDS Day 2024, on behalf of the organization.
