I believe given the research and global resources available we have a real chance at kicking out HIV. Let us all join hands because a last global push will help us all attain a future free of AIDS. (8)

In Ghana, as well as in other West African Countries, we have been quite successful with dealing with stigma by using persons living with HIV as ambassadors for promoting healthy lifestyles and showing people that there is life after HIV. (7a)

We know too well that stigmatisation Of persons living with AIDS and families affected can derail or slow the pace of progress in the fight against HIV/AIDS.
It is important to note that fighting the stigma and discrimination are key to achieving the #UN 90-90-90 agenda. (6)

The path to a future free of HIV/AIDS also lies in stopping new infections among children and adolescents. Outreach activities need to be intensified through frequent community outreach programs where are youth can access non-judgmental services. (5)
