22. Reaffirm that the prevention of HIV infection must be the mainstay of
national, regional and international responses to the pandemic, and therefore commit
ourselves to intensifying efforts to ensure that a wide range of prevention
programmes that take account of local circumstances, ethics and cultural values is
available in all countries, particularly the most affected countries, including
information, education and communication, in languages most understood by
communities and respectful of cultures, aimed at reducing risk-taking behaviours
and encouraging responsible sexual behaviour, including abstinence and fidelity;
expanded access to essential commodities, including male and female condoms and
sterile injecting equipment; harm-reduction efforts related to drug use; expanded
access to voluntary and confidential counselling and testing; safe blood supplies;
and early and effective treatment of sexually transmitted infections;

and affected by HIV/AIDS are mutually reinforcing elements of an effective
response and must be integrated in a comprehensive approach to combat the
pandemic;

access to effective HIV prevention, treatment, care and support, medicines,
commodities and services;
25. Pledge to promote, at the international, regional, national and local levels,

disclosure of HIV status;
26. Commit ourselves to addressing the rising rates of HIV infection among young
people to ensure an HIV-free future generation through the implementation of
comprehensive, evidence-based prevention strategies, responsible sexual behaviour,
including the use of condoms, evidence- and skills-based, youth-specific HIV
education, mass media interventions and the provision of youth-friendly health
services;
27. Commit ourselves also to ensuring that pregnant women have access to
antenatal care, information, counselling and other HIV services and to increasing
the availability of and access to effective treatment to women living with HIV and
infants in order to reduce mother-to-child transmission of HIV, as well as to
ensuring effective interventions for women living with HIV, including voluntary and
confidential counselling and testing, with informed consent, access to treatment,
especially life-long antiretroviral therapy and, where appropriate, breast-milk
substitutes and the provision of a continuum of care;

at all times will have access to sufficient, safe and nutritious food to meet their
dietary needs and food preferences, for an active and healthy life, as part of a
comprehensive response to HIV/AIDS;
29. Commit ourselves to intensifying efforts to enact, strengthen or enforce, as
appropriate, legislation, regulations and other measures to eliminate all forms of
discrimination against and to ensure the full enjoyment of all human rights and
fundamental freedoms by people living with HIV and members of vulnerable
groups, in particular to ensure their access to, inter alia, education, inheritance,
employment, health care, social and health services, prevention, support and
treatment, information and legal protection, while respecting their privacy and
