SOUTHERN Africa HIV & AIDS Information Dissemination Service (SAfAIDS) has launched strategy 2021-2025 in a bid to advance Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights (SRHR) through promoting Gender Equality and Social Inclusion (GESI), and Resilience building.
According to SAFAIDS, the goals and objectives of the strategy can only be achieved through prioritising populations defined as vulnerable, marginalised, hard-to-penetrate or motivate, key or at-risk; divided by trait and identity; across community, institutional, policy-making and leadership levels.
We are fully cognisant that SRH outcomes can no longer be sustained in isolation, without simultaneously advancing GESI and empowerment for Resilience. We recognise that sustaining good health outcomes can only be done through a Universal Health Coverage lens, which is integrated with other development issues (climate action, access to education and WASH, alleviating poverty and hunger)
“We firmly believe No-one should be Left Behind and in Saving Lives. This means prioritising populations defined as vulnerable, marginalised, hard-to-penetrate or motivate, key or at-risk; divided by trait and identity; across community, institutional, policy-making and leadership levels. This also means cultivating an internal organisational culture that upholds its values and principles; and delivers efficiently, ethically and innovatively.”
