The points in attachment 1 were recommended by the PCB working groups to be taken into consideration in the development of the strategy paper.

As a powerful advocacy tool, the strategy should be presented to the governing boards of the Cosponsors and other relevant UN agencies. Members have a responsibility to advocate within these governing boards for appropriate action.

The development of indicators should occur simultaneously with that of the strategy.

The strategy development should be completed and reported to the PCB within one year.

The PCB and its members have different and important roles in the strategic development process:

• country level consultations with young people should be carried out through the Theme Groups and other appropriate consultative mechanisms, in particular in countries of PCB members (with a view to reporting back to the next PCB meeting);
• the collection of background information and the preparation of the working draft should be undertaken by the Cosponsors and the Secretariat.

The PCB requested a broad strategy to be supported by a more detailed description of more targeted efforts, based on age and other determinants of vulnerability including disability.

The development of the strategy should be undertaken in consultation with relevant parts of the UN system, in particular the Office of the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) and the Committee of the Rights of the Child (CRC) to help ensure a rights based approach.

The PCB requests the UNAIDS Secretariat, working in partnership with the Cosponsors, to further develop the strategic framework.

The PCB welcomed the development of a global strategic framework, including the seven priority action areas described. The PCB further emphasized that the strategy development process needs to involve the participation of governments, young people, civil society, including religious and cultural organizations, with the goal of increasing participation and commitment of all stakeholders.
