Dear colleagues,
A small group of UNDP colleagues from the HIV, Health and Development team are participating in AIDS 2022 as delegates from 27 July - 2 August 2022.
During the conference week the team will cover a selection of activities related to key populations, human rights, digital health, stigma and discrimination, investments and efficiencies and gender. The team will post highlights, new research, evidence and key takeaways below. We hope these updates will help to inform your work.
We encourage you to share your views and comments.

Jeff, this was a strong session - many congratulations to you and team! Impressive how, minutes after you started, the huge room we had started filling with young activists from African countries, but also many people for Southeast Asia, who came to listen and compare notes. Speakers were joking about overusing the term "intersectionality" but the session was about intersectionality - and connecting the dots between HIV and key populations, LGBT+ rights and inclusion and catalytical factors for a positive social change. The panelists were impressive. Engaging and empathic, with excellent chemistry between them - all of them strategic thinkers, who know their field very well. A pleasure to listen.
