UNASO program implementation is hinged on our mandate to coordinate the CSOs so that they can more effectively and efficiency respond to the epidemic and thus contribute to the achievement of not only its vision but also the national and international development goals. UNASO works to achieve this by
Consolidating and scaling-up its interventions while focusing on doing things within its mandate so that more results and impact can be achieved with the same resources
Mobilizing and engaging its large number of member organizations and partners that are spread across the country and internationally
Enhancing creativity, collaboration and connectivity among members and partners at various levels viz international, national, decentralized and regional levels.
UNASO engages partners and stakeholders that are public and those that are non-public, at two levels, namely; Technical Partners and Strategic Partners.
The public partners include government ministries, departments and agencies while the non-public include Non-Governmental Organisations.
Technical partners are engaged with the goal of sharing information and resources, cross learning and capacity building.
Engage with our partners across the following key functions of UNASO; joint advocacy, capacity building, joint resource mobilization and coordination.
We do all this to leverage technical and financial resources and to maximize benefits of synergy and to promote efficiency.
Even with tremendous work that researchers and scientists are doing and how far we have come in regards to the epidemic, many young people continue to acquire HIV every day. This shows that we have to go back to the drawing board and come up with better products and plans to deliver all prevention options. Even as a young HIV-positive advocate, I can tell you that it never gets easier—so for me to give a young person out there any chance to a better life is important and is the source of my strength to advocate for HIV prevention.
