Project: cooperation agreement UNAIDS
beneficiary: UNAIDS
Duration: 2015-2018
Budget: 3.000.000 euro
Sub sahara Africa remains the region with the highest number of people living with HIV and AIDS (PLHIV). Of the currently 35 million PLHIV, there are 24.7 million (70%!) In this region, while this region houses only 13% of the world's population.
With the cooperation agreement, Flanders will continue to support UNAIDS at level of headquarters and country offices in 8 countries in the SAC region. This special UN program provides a guarantee for continued international attention for the fight against HIV and AIDS.
The structural support meets Flanders's commitment to continue to focus on sexual and reproductive health and rights in its development cooperation as a theme where Flanders can also provide a demonstrable added value. The support is granted on the basis of the organization's own integrated strategic documents and budget proposals, the so-called "Single Budget, Results and Accountability Framework", the UBRAF.
