Global Alliance to end AIDS in Children by 2030 - UNICEF ED Russell's Message (Africa Launch 2023)

African Health Ministers and international partners are uniting in a pledge to end AIDS in children. Hosted by the United Republic of Tanzania, the alliance will run for the next eight years until 2030, aiming to fix one of the most glaring disparities in the AIDS response: while three quarters of adults living with HIV globally are on treatment, only half of children are. And children accounted for 15% of all AIDS deaths despite making up only 4% of all people living with HIV. The alliance is to advocate and mobilize political commitment and resources to ensure action and accountability around shared targets and commitments.

Twelve countries have joined the alliance in the first phase: Angola, Cameroon, Côte d'Ivoire, The Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), Kenya, Mozambique, Nigeria, South Africa, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia, and Zimbabwe. Tanzania being one of the first countries to sign up.
