Today UNAIDS South Africa is hosting a consultation with SANAC Civil Society Forum in Sandton to prepare for the upcoming 2026 UN High-Level Meeting on HIV/AIDS, scheduled to take place at UN HQ in New York. In his Opening Remarks, CSF Chairperson Mr. Solly Nduku said, “The upcoming high-level meeting to be held in New-York in June will result in a new political declaration that will guide the Global HIV Response through 2030. That declaration must not be a distant document shaped in boardrooms far removed from the realities of our communities. It must be grounded in the lived experiences of people on the ground. It must reflect the urgency of those still being left behind. And it must be bold enough to match the scale of the challenge before us”.
