New global targets for 2025 put a special emphasis on creating the enabling environment for ending AIDS, identified in the 10-10-10 targets: that less than 10% of countries have punitive legal and policy conditions that prohibit or restrict access to services; less than 10% of key populations and people living with HIV face discrimination and stigma; and less than 10% of women, girls, people living with HIV and key populations face violence and gender inequality. Even in those countries that have achieved the 90–90–90 treatment targets, averages conceal the reality that too many people are still being left behind. The aggregate global and national averages, while reflecting positive trends, mask areas of continued concern - areas which, unless addressed, will prevent the world from ending AIDS. In 2019, 1.7 million people newly acquired HIV infection. At the end of 2020, there were 12 million people living with HIV who are likely to die of AIDS-related causes if they do not receive treatment. Even though effective treatment exists, almost 700 000 people died of AIDS-related causes in 2019. The HIV response must refocus on how to extend life-saving services to all who need them, in every country and community. For the majority of key populations and other priority populations, including millions of people living with HIV who are unaware of their HIV status or lack access to treatment, the benefits of scientific advances and HIV-related social and legal protection remain beyond reach. Key populations - people living with HIV, men who have sex with men, transgender people, people who inject drugs and sex workers and their clients - are at higher risk of exposure to HIV than other groups.11,12 In specific contexts, effective HIV responses must also focus on other priority populations, such as adolescent girls and young women in sub-Saharan Africa and 47% of children living with HIV globally who are not receiving access to treatment that will save their lives. This session aims to highlight the importance of achieving the "10-10-10" targets to end AIDS and will focus on the work that needs to be done to reach the "10-10-10" targets.
