I was delighted to join Katrien de Pauw, @Flanders_DFA at #PCB56, in signing a new two-year agreement with @UNAIDS for €1.5 million contribution to help #endAIDS in Africa. I thank the Government of Flanders for its long-standing partnership with UNAIDS, dating back to the early…

Dr. Motsoaledi @HealthZA called the current HIV funding crisis a wake-up call for all governments, at the launch of the #GlobalAIDSUpdate2025. He urged countries to take greater ownership of their HIV response to protect the health of their people. youtube.com/watch?v=jA3FSc…

Professor Rees @WitsRHI reminded us that HIV research has delivered global breakthroughs—from cutting-edge treatments to community-led care models. She urged world leaders not to walk away from research promises made under pandemic preparedness plans as progress depends on it.

Stigma&discrimination against people living with HIV remains a huge barrier to accessing health care. As we observe this day, we also remember the iconic Prudence Mabele who courageously fought for equity&dignity for all 🙌 #zerohivstigmaday

Mandela’s legacy reminds us that each of us has the power & responsibility to make the world a better place. Every act of kindness, big or small, helps carry forward his vision of equality and justice for all. This #MandelaDay, take action, inspire change in communities. 💙

#MandelaDay2025 On this day, we honour @NelsonMandela legacy by reaffirming our commitment to equity in health for all. Because building a healthier, more just world means ensuring no one is left behind regardless of income, geography, or status.

I was impressed by the @BerthaGxowa_H ARV distribution system for 3-month dispensing and how they even call patients after 7 days' delays to pick up drugs. They are conscious of stigma and ensure that the system is non-discriminatory. #StopStigma #endAIDS

The women's SRHR clinic was impressive & included a strong focus on how they use technology to detect & treat cervical cancer. Also learnt that 🇿🇦 govt has an impressive HPV vaccine programme reaching over 5 million young women in public school from as early as 9 years. #endAIDS

It was a privilege last week to visit the @BerthaGxowa_H district hospital in Ekurhuleni, outside Johannesburg, along with Dr Aaron Motsoaledi, 🇿🇦 Minister of Health @HealthZA, and Humile Mashatile, 2nd Lady and Patron of the Global Alliance to End Pediatric Aids. Inspired to…

40.8 million people were living with HIV globally, in 2024. With funding for the global HIV response declining, we risk seeing this number rise, reversing years of progress. We cannot afford more new HIV infections. #GlobalAIDSUpdate2015

“Ending AIDS in children by 2030 is not a slogan. It is a promise that every child deserves to grow up healthy, happy & HIV-free.” - Humile Mashatile, 🇿🇦 Patron of the #GlobalAllianceEndAIDS. WATCH her full message of support at the #GlobalAIDSUpdate2025 ⬇️📺 #ForEveryChild

The words of Reverend Mbulelo Dyasi, Executive Director, SANARELA @SA_AIDSCOUNCIL are still ringing in my ears, that despite all the aids cuts, "This time we are refusing to die. If the West and Europe expect to see us dying, not this time around. We are refusing. We must make…

We must ensure we are not dependent on one country only for funding - this is what this crisis has taught us, says @HealthZA Minister, Aaron Motsoaledi at the @UNAIDS Global AIDS Update Report launch in 🇿🇦

There are new prevention tools that bring new infections down very fast - we need access to them and they must be affordable says @Winnie_Byanyima during the launch of the Global AIDS Update Report in 🇿🇦
