A global interfaith call to action to end the AIDS epidemic went out from an interfaith service on 7 June in the Church Center of the United Nations, 777 United Nations Plaza in New York City.
The service precedes an 8-10 June UN High Level Meeting on AIDS at which world leaders will adopt a concise, action-oriented Political Declaration on HIV and AIDS. The declaration will express the commitment of nations to HIV response, and serve as a point of accountability for achieving the goals for ending the HIV/AIDS epidemic by 2030.
