- The United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) adopted the 2026 Political Declaration on HIV/AIDS to accelerate efforts to end Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS) as a public health threat by 2030.
- It reaffirms the 95-95-95 targets by 2030, under which 95% of people with Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) should know their status, 95% should receive treatment, and 95% should achieve viral suppression.
- It aims to provide HIV treatment to 40 million people, expand Antiretroviral (ARV)-based prevention to 20 million people, and mobilise US$21.9 billion annually by 2030.
- The declaration promotes gender equality, elimination of HIV-related stigma and discrimination, stronger community-led responses, and wider access to affordable HIV medicines and diagnostics.
- It also calls for annual progress reports to UNAIDS and a United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) High-Level Meeting in 2031 to review global progress.
