The Campaign

Unite for Children, Unite against AIDS is the largest campaign ever initiated to bring the world's attention to the global impact that HIV/AIDS has had on children and youth. Over 2.3 million children under the age of 15 live with HIV, mostly due to mother-child transmissions. These children have fallen victim to this pandemic the world over, reaching from sub-Saharan Africa, Eastern Europe, the former Soviet Union, Asia, to the Americas. Efforts to expand health care services and prevention measures will enable Unicef to achieve a goal that will see a future generation of children living in an AIDS free world.

The Unite for Children, Unite against AIDS campaign mandate is to fight against this pandemic by supporting, caring, protecting, and supplying treatment to millions of children and adolescents. In the destructive path of this disease, many are still at risk and desperately need the resources to combat HIV/AIDS. To make an impact to ensure that millions more will not be infected and affected by AIDS, the mobilization of international resources must happen. The aim is to halt and begin to reverse the spread of HIV/AIDS by the year 2015.
