In 2022, the Joint Programme supported countries in adopting and implementing global norms and standards on gender equality and women’s empowerment in the context of HIV, continuing its global leadership in promoting gender equality as a cornerstone of the HIV response.
The Joint Programme intensified the use of knowledge and tools to promote gender equality in national HIV strategies and plans, including the use of gender assessments to inform gender-responsive actions, budgets and indicators. Joint UN Teams on AIDS supported 41 countries to strengthen gender expertise and capacity to further integrate gender equality into national HIV responses and meaningfully engage women in all their diversity.
Further, strategic partnerships were mobilized to prioritize gender-responsive HIV prevention, treatment, care and support services free of gender-based discrimination and violence, e.g., through the Education Plus initiative.
