UNAIDS stands with LGBTQ+ communities! We applaud LGBTQ+ defenders and organizations working to ensure rights are respected and upheld, and the many countries scrapping harmful punitive anti-LGBTQ+ laws. This is a moment for solidarity. This is a moment for #PRIDE.

Pride month is about more than just celebrating the LGBTQ+ community, it's about fighting for equality and human rights.

Such an inspirational visit last week to Mutirรด's Support Center for Positive Women in Salvador ๐Ÿ‡ง๐Ÿ‡ท, empowering HIV-positive women! Their stories of overcoming the stigma associated with living w/HIV, & limited access to health services, moved me deeply.๐Ÿซถ๐Ÿพ atarde.com.br/bahia/bahiasalโ€ฆ

Today we are at a hinge moment: the end of AIDS as a public health threat is realisable in this decade, but progress is imperiled by the pushback on human rights. #PRIDE #PRIDEmonth 76crimes.com/2024/06/10/unaโ€ฆ

The progress made in the AIDS response is a demonstration of what we can achieve when we work together, follow the science and invest adequately. And when we tackle inequalities, protect human rights, and let communities lead the way. un.org/sg/en/content/โ€ฆ
