Developing Countries: HIV/AIDS

Asked by David MundellConservativeForeign, Commonwealth and Development OfficeTabled Answered 24 March 2026UIN 121298

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, whether the Government plans to raise access to long-acting injectable HIV prevention and treatment technologies in low and middle-income countries at the UN High-Level Meeting on HIV/AIDS in June 2026.

Answered by Chris Elmore

The High-Level Meeting comes at a critical moment for the global HIV response and offers an opportunity to reaffirm international commitments to end AIDS for good. The UK has endorsed the Global AIDS Strategy 2026-2031 and will work to ensure the political declaration upholds its ambitions, particularly on human rights, and harnesses the opportunity presented by long-acting injectable HIV prevention and treatment.
