  ABOUT US
 
YouandAIDS.org is an HIV/AIDS portal for Asia Pacific that seeks to address the strongly-felt information and services needs of the region, particularly in the overall development context, and act as a regional platform to synergise multisectoral responses against the HIV/AIDS epidemic. The Initiative, which began under the UNAIDS Inter Country Team (South Asia), has been expanded and is being taken forward by the UNDP Regional HIV and Development Programme for South and North East Asia (REACH Beyond Borders), as part of its Information and Communications Technology (ICT) activities. The portal also seeks to promote networking, strengthen advocacy and catalyse civil society responses.
 
 
UNDP (United Nations Development Programme)
 
UNDP is the UN's global development network, advocating for change and connecting countries to knowledge, experience and resources to help people build a better life. We are on the ground in 166 countries, working with them on their own solutions to global and national development challenges. As they develop local capacity, they draw on the people of UNDP and our wide range of partners.
 
 
UNDP Regional HIV and Development Programme for South and North East Asia
(REACH Beyond Borders)
 
REACH Beyond Borders is the consolidated second phase of the UNDP Special Initiative on HIV/AIDS Regional Programme for South and North East Asia covering 13 countries of the region: Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Bhutan, China, DPR Korea, India, Iran, Maldives, Mangolia, Nepal, Pakistan, Republic of Korea and Sri Lanka.

The Programme supports the objective of containing the spread and impact of HIV/AIDS in the region through integrated responses that promote gender equality, poverty reduction and good governance. It assists countries in the region to work towards fulfilment of the UNGASS and Millennium Development Goals and achieve sustainable human development through averting an HIV/AIDS crisis. Specifically the programme works towards:
 
1. Advocating for supportive policies and building commitment among key stakeholders in the region to address HIV/AIDS as a development issue;
2. Strengthening knowledge and capacity for a sustained multi-sectoral response linking livelihoods, gender and HIV issues;
3. Protecting dignity and human security of people infected and affected by HIV through strengthened governance.
 
The Programme addresses particular concerns such as the vulnerability of mobile populations, trafficking of women and children, and the reduction of stigma and discrimination of HIV infected and affected people. Special attention is paid to the Greater Involvement of People Living with HIV/AIDS (GIPA). It promotes and facilitates dialogue, sharing and learning between the countries of the region and proactively seeks association and linkages with existing schemes and activities of governments and others that enhance opportunities and impact prevention, care and community support initiatives to contain the epidemic. The Programme both complements existing national initiatives and generates new responses to HIV/AIDS, building partnerships between various stakeholders at the regional and global levels.
