This year, the Government of Uganda will commemorate the world aids day on 1st December under a national theme: National Solidarity and a Shared Responsibility towards Ending AIDS.

The International World AIDS Day provides a powerful platform for community mobilization and pursuance of the Presidential Fast Track Initiative (PFTI) for Ending AIDS as a public health threat in Uganda by 2030. 

Uganda has made a lot of progress in responding to the burden of HIV and AIDS over the last four decades. With the 2030 target of ending AIDS insight, it is critical for everyone to reflect on their individual and collective responsibility towards ending AIDS in Uganda.

Uganda is now ranked among the first 14 countries globally to have achieved the UNAIDS  2^nd and 3^rd targets i.e. 90% of all People living with HIV being put on treatment and 90% of those on treatment being viral suppressed.
