This age group is expected to double in sub-Saharan Africa in the next decade and therefore urgent action is needed to end the epidemic and prevent a resurgence of HIV. In stepping up its work against gender-based health inequalities, the Global Fund has more than quadrupled investments to reduce new HIV infections for adolescent girls and young women in sub-Saharan Africa with strong community-based prevention programmes. The Global Fund has also recently set a bold target to reduce the number of new HIV infections among adolescent girls and young women by 58% in 13 African countries over the next five years as part of their HER: HIV Epidemic Response campaign. In recognition of the need for collective action, the Global Fund is building on the work of the U.S. President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief and the DREAMS Partnership, with support from private sector to expand HIV prevention programmes for adolescent girls and young women over the next five years with a girlcentred, rights-based approach. These programmes provide condoms, PrEP, HIV testing services as well as life skills and financial literacy education.
