“In countries without laws to protect sex workers, drug users and men who have sex with men, only a fraction of the population has access to prevention… Not only is it unethical not to protect these groups; it makes no sense from a health perspective. It hurts all of us.” Ban Ki-moon, Secretary-General of the United Nations, August 2008

Decisions & Recommendations 23rd Meeting of the UNAIDS Programme Coordinating Board Geneva, Switzerland December 2008 “Requests UNAIDS to accelerate its work on … lesbians, gays, bi- sexuals, and transgenders with the meaningful engagement of those communities as well as people living with HIV” “Requests UNAIDS to prepare a progress report for the 24th Programme Coordinating Board Meeting detailing the work of the UNAIDS Secretariat and Cosponsors in assisting countries in… needs assessments for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender communities, separately emphasizing country level action, as well as follow-up actions, including the establishment of an inter-agency strategy…”
