The 53rd UNAIDS Programme Coordinating Board (PCB) takes place from 12 until 14 December 2023. The thematic segment topic is “Testing and HIV.” The virtual pre-meetings on the agenda items will be on 4 and 5 December. The consultation on decision points will be on 7 December. This consultation is only accessible to PCB members.

This year’s report to the PCB will focus on ‘People living with HIV during humanitarian emergencies’. The last couple of years have seen several different humanitarian emergencies arising from various parts of the world. Some of the most notable ones include the Russo-Ukrainian War, the ongoing conflict in Sudan, and the catastrophic hunger crisis in Somalia. These crises create gaps in the global response to HIV/AIDS for people living with HIV. You can now download and read the report.
