Every era offers something special. I think the most special thing about our current time is the incredible opportunity that scientific advances have provided in the field of global health, giving us the ability to completely control highly dangerous infectious diseases such as AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria. The recent progress is breathtaking. If we can harness the funds needed, we can essentially take these diseases off the table as threats to greater development.

Discussion Paper: How the HIV community can shape the future HIV and development agenda post-2015
31 October 2012
Introduction
As the 2015 target date for achieving the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) approaches the United Nations, governments, civil society and other global and national stakeholders are involved in a series of processes that will determine the new development goals. These processes are evolving quickly without strong participation of HIV and AIDS groups or stakeholders.
There are key opportunities for the HIV community to engage in these processes and to influence for the inclusion of HIV in the post-2015 development framework.

UNJUST SUPREME COURT RULING ON CRIMINALIZATION OF HIV MAJOR STEP BACKWARDS FOR PUBLIC HEALTH AND HUMAN RIGHTS
October 5, 2012 — As a coalition of interveners, we are shocked and dismayed at today's ruling by the Supreme Court of Canada that says that even the responsible use of a condom does not protect a person living with HIV from rampant prosecution. The Court's judgments in R. v. Mabior and R. v. D.C., two cases relating to the criminalization of HIV non-disclosure, are a cold endorsement of AIDS-phobia. They will stand as an impediment to public health and prevention, and add even more fuel to stigma, misinformation and fear. And they place Canada once again in shameful opposition to standards set out by international human rights bodies, UNAIDS and the Global Commission on HIV and the Law.
