Promoting partnerships among various stakeholders and leadership for an effective action is one of its priority. <\/li><li><strong>Strategic information and technical support to guide efforts against AIDS worldwide: <\/strong>UNAIDS strive on information and technical support. Addressing issue of stigma and discrimination is one such effort. Database utilisation is the main driver behind fighting against the epidemic.<\/li><li><strong>Tracking, monitoring and evaluation of the pandemic and of responses to it: <\/strong>By monitoring the spread of the disease it allow various governments and stakeholders to develop a comprehensive response against HIV\/AIDS. It sought to check epidemic by tracking various national targets and achievements and implementing success across the globe.<\/li><li><strong>Civil society engagement and the development of strategic partnership:<\/strong> In particular, it calls for complementation of government efforts by the full and active participation of civil society, the business community and the private sector. It include:<ul><li>Establishing and strengthening mechanisms that involve civil society including the private sector, and people living with HIV\/AIDS at all levels.<\/li><li>Encouraging and supporting local and national organizations to expand and strengthen regional partnerships, coalitions and networks.<\/li><li>Full participation of people living with HIV\/AIDS, those in vulnerable groups and people mostly at risk, particularly young people.<\/li><\/ul><\/li><li><strong>Mobilisation of resources to support an effective response: <\/strong>Through<strong> <\/strong>various governments at global, involving private sector, resources mobilisation is sought to achieve for an effective response. <\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Need of coordinated effort across the globe\nagainst AIDS because:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Prevention\nof new infections: <\/strong>A global effort is required\nto prevent new infections through proper check of migratory population, easy\navailability of drugs, awareness etc. Further global coordination is required\nto prevent refugees issues and restoration like Rohingyas. Migratory people are\nalways at high risk of getting and spreading AIDS.<\/li><li><strong>Access to\ncare: <\/strong>In most of the developing countries and least\ndeveloped countries treatment against HIV is very costly and inaccessible.\nPromotion of generic drugs is must at global level.<\/li><li><strong>Protection\nof human rights: <\/strong>Social stigma and discrimination\nagainst people with HIV and AIDS still exist. This need awareness and\ncoordinated efforts at global scale. <\/li><li><strong>Gender\ninequality:<\/strong> Women across the world face\ndiscrimination at social and economic levels. Many a times, women living with\nHIV are reluctant to access health care due to fear of discrimination and\nmarginalisation. There is need of global awareness and revolution like #MeToo\nto sensitise world.<\/li><li><strong>Database:<\/strong> There is need of greater analysis of HIV data to prevent AIDS from turning\ninto a pandemic. A global data with determination of hot pockets is necessary. Lack\nof integrated data systems limit its availability and use prevent efforts\nagainst AIDS. Migration to new places is increasing that increase the need of a\ndatabase more to prevent AIDS.<\/li><li><strong>Removal of\nInfrastructural bottlenecks:<\/strong> A global effort is\nneeded to remove infrastructure bottlenecks especially in least developed\ncountries. In recent years, there have been issues in the procurement,\nmanagement and distribution of anti retroviral vaccines, HIV testing kits and\nother HIV commodities.<\/li><li><strong>Funding\nissues:<\/strong> Ending HIV\/AIDS require massive amount of\nfunds. Funding to tackle the HIV epidemic need coordinations efforts especially\nby developed countries. The creation of a Global Fund to Fight AIDS,\nTuberculosis and Malaria (GFATM) and the slashing of prices of AIDS drugs are\nnot sufficient. More is needed to invest in Research and development for\nfinding cure against AIDS. Funding for non-governmental organisations and\ncommunity-based organisations working on prevention has virtually dried up.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>To combat HIV\/AIDS there is need of a multi-sectoral and multilateral approach to the disease. It calls for an expanded global response. It is possible to halt the advance of the epidemic but this could be achieved only with the sustained mobilisation of the global community.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Demand of the question Introduction.
