  1. Securing the future today Synthesis of strategic information on HIV and young people Global Interagency Task Team on HIV and young people, June 2011

  2. Why synthesis report? • Key resource with data on epidemiology and synthesis of strategic information reported by countries through UNGASS country progress reports, 2010 on indicators related to young people • Coupled with strategic information on young people from other data sources • Linking the data with other key resources – UNAIDS Strategy, UN Political Declaration on HIV/AIDS, June 2010, UNAIDS Business Case on the priority area on young people • An advocacy tool for strengthen HIV response among young people • An advocacy tool for further improving data collection, compilation, disaggregation and dissemination at all levels

  3. Process of development • Review and analysis of data from: • UNGASS Country Progress Reports, 2010 • UNAIDS Report on the Global AIDS Epidemic in 2010 • AIDSinfo database • Measure Demographic and Health Surveys • Analysis of the National AIDS Strategic Plans, 2010 • Strategic information from the narrative sections and the National Composite Policy Index. • Report entails: • Recent epidemiology data by region • By indicator with its reporting rates • By indicator with analysis of what has been reported • Legal, policy issues • Multisectoral AIDS strategy and AIDS Spending • Summary and Recommendations • Regional overviews with three indicators for the bold results in the BC

  4. Reporting on HIV and Young People • In 2010, out of 192, 182 (94%) countries reported on at least some of the 25 core UNGASS indicators. • Out of 182 countries,171 (95%) included information related to the National Composite Policy Index (NCPI). • Of the 25 total core indicators, 18 indicators are relevant to young people • 4 directly referring to young people • 2 for orphans and other vulnerable children • Remaining 12 indicators are reported for adults aged 15–49, out of which 8 are for key populations – all are expected to report with age and sex disaggregated data

  5. Know your epidemic • Trend data shows - 25% decline in HIV prevalence among young people between 2000-2008 15 of 21 most affected countries • Young people accounted for 41% of all new HIV infections among adults in 2009 • 4.9 million (4,300,000-5,900,000) young women and men were then living with HIV • Young women disproportionately account for 64% of infections among young people worldwide • 3.2 million (2,900,000-3,900,000) young women and 1.7 million (1,400,000-1,900,000) young men aged 15–24 were estimated to be living with HIV in 2009

  6. Know your response

  7. Know your response

  8. Key populations

  9. Key populations • UNGASS Indicator 9: Percentage of most-at-risk populations reached with HIV prevention programmes (disaggregated by age <25 years) • 48 countries reported on the coverage of HIV prevention programmes for young sex workers, 27 for young people who inject drugs and 37 for men who have sex with men. • Only 7 countries report greater than 80% programme coverage for young sex workers, 5 countries for young men who have sex with men, and only one for young people who inject drugs

  10. Enabling environment

  11. Summary with Recommendations • Epidemiology • Declines in Epidemic, but more needs to be done • Know your epidemic and tailor response to specific subgroups of young people • Global Reporting • Data is critical for better programmes • Knowledge • Comprehensive Knowledge is lagging (Only 26% young women and 36% young men has HIV comprehensive knowledge ) • Behaviour • Condom use needs to increase further • Services • Uptake of HIV counselling and testing is low

  12. Summary with Recommendations • Policies and Programmes • Remove regulations and policies that are obstacles for accessing HIV services • Resources • Allocate and sustain resources to HIV programmes for young people • Engagement of young people • Engage young people as active partners, not as passive recipients • Empower young people as leaders of the AIDS response • Integration • Integrate HIV programmes into broader sexual and reproductive health prorgammes and also in the context of MDGs

  13. Next Steps • Planned to be launched in July 2011, as part of the UN High Level Meeting on Youth, International Year of Youth
