United Nations AIDS agency chief lauds Africa’s progress to end disease
The executive director of the United Nations AIDS agency (UNAIDS) says several countries in Africa are making good progress towards achieving the worldwide goal to end AIDS as a public health threat by 2030. However, Winnie Byanyima says for the international community to be successful, world leaders must ensure adequate resources, resolve the debt burden of low-income countries, and protect rights by ending discrimination. Byanyima spoke with VOA’s James Butty from Munich, Germany, where this year’s global AIDS conference is taking place
