UNAIDS Expresses Support for HIV2020 Conference

In an official letter today from UNAIDS Interim Executive Director Gunilla Carson, the multilateral international organization expressed their support for the upcoming HIV2020 conference in Mexico City.
Read the letter from UNAIDS here

The Joint United Nations Programme on HIV and AIDS, UNAIDS is the main advocate for accelerated, comprehensive and coordinated global action on the HIV/AIDS pandemic. Their support echos the HIV2020 Alliance’s commitment to fostering a community-led response that necessarily includes amplifying the voices of vulnerable and marginalized key populations that are disproportionately affected by HIV & AIDS.

The full text of the letter is available below:

Dear Organizers of HIV2020,
Communities and key populations are the backbone of the AIDS response and their meaningful engagement has always been a core and guiding principle for UNAIDS.
UNAIDS therefore supports the upcoming HIV2020 conference, set to take place 5 to 7 July 2020. The HIV2020 conference will provide a platform to amplify the voices and support the organizing of people affected by HIV: people living with HIV, LGBTI people, sex workers, people who use drugs, and people with history of incarceration. UNAIDS shares the main goal of the HIV2020 organizing committee to ensure a safe space for communities as defined by communities, to draw global attention to the vital role communities play in the global HIV response, by instigating conversations with and among people living with and affected by HIV in all their diversity.
UNAIDS recognizes the importance of HIV2020 and the reasons for it being organized. UNAIDS supports efforts to mobilize the resources needed to organize and hold this conference. We hope our engagement will enhance the virtual connections and synergies between HIV2020 and AIDS2020, where UNAIDS is a permanent partner of the organizing committee. UNAIDS will work with the organizers of HIV2020 to make every effort to ensure that people living with and most affected by HIV are equal partners in global deliberations about HIV research and their real-world implications and the overall future of the AIDS response.
Yours sincerely,
Gunilla Carlsson

What are the symptoms, & how is it diagnosed? The symptoms of herpes depends on the site of disease: Oral herpes (cold sores): Sores around the mouth and nostrils. They may itch or be painful. They might look like the sore in this picture: Genital herpes: Sores on the penis in males or near or in the vagina in women. Genital herpes can also cause sores near the anus, including the area between the anus and the genitals (the perineum). Sometimes, genital herpes can cause pain when urinating or defecation. They might look like the sores in this picture: How is herpes diagnosed? Oral and genital herpes are well-known diseases. Most doctors and other health-care providers know herpes when they see it.

Hacked To Death: Kawere Fahad 21 Years Dies From His Wounds

Driven, young, restless and focused begins to describe Kawere Fahad 21 years.  Rest In Peace! Wakiso District, in the Central Region of Uganda is very important to Uganda as DC is to USA or Buckingham is to UK. This area has the biggest number of schools per land size, the oldest Basilica in Africa, real estate hub and is the dormitory District for many urbanites in Uganda.  It is in this area that one finds such suburbs like Kayunga and Nansana. These suburbs never go to sleep!   One would expect that this metropolitan profile puts it at a place where murder cases are investigated and deterred by police and communities. And that assailants are stopped in their tracks before they delivered a deeply bruising or fatal blow. But this was not the case for Fahad Kawere. KGN has learnt that Fahad and a first batch of friends had a meeting which went up to around 2:30 am (1st August 2019). After the meeting, Fahad got a message and told this...

He is A Refugee, With A Name, Brutally Beaten, He is Gay: Do They Know It Is Christmas Time?

At a male ward, in Kakuma Camp Hospital lie several refugees beaten rather brutally and some in need of specialized care. The excessive use of force by the Camp Security is uncalled for. It is a crime against humanity. This is Christmas time. A time when we are all merry and jovial. However, do these refugees know that it is Christmas time? Refugees are not "mistaken identities" or some statistic warranting impunity! A tweet from Refugee Independent Support Organization (RISO) in Kenya purports to a disturbing piece of information. Refugee Independence Support Oganization-RISO @RefugeeRiso  Vision: A quality life for all humans irrespective of status and belief. "Rwenjura Nathan an LGBTI refugee member who was brutally beaten by the GOK death squads and homophobes in Kakuma refugee camp, he is critically very sick and fighting for dear life. His sad condition has brought tears to Fellow refugees in Kakuma who are not sure of his survival." A sourc...
