A propos de l’ONUSIDA :
Au service des communautés et des pays pour mettre fin aux inégalités et au sida
Nous, le Programme commun des Nations Unies sur le VIH/sida, menons l’effort mondial pour mettre fin au sida en tant que menace pour la santé publique d’ici 2030. En plaçant les Objectifs de développement durable (ODD) liés à la réduction des inégalités au cœur de notre travail, nous menons la réponse mondiale au sida en : (i) maximisant l’accès équitable et égal aux services VIH, (ii) éliminant les obstacles à l’obtention de résultats en matière de VIH, et (iii) intégrant des réponses efficaces au VIH dans des systèmes de santé et de protection plus larges.
Nous nous engageons à créer une culture de l’égalité, de la sécurité et de l’autonomisation sur le lieu de travail où toutes les personnes, dans toute leur diversité, s’épanouissent. Nous vivons nos valeurs d’engagement envers la réponse au sida, d’intégrité et de respect de la diversité.
