Rising condom prices = reduced access = higher HIV risk.
In East & Southern Africa, this threatens progress toward ending AIDS by 2030.
RIATT-ESA calls for urgent action to protect access & strengthen prevention.
Condoms are essential.

HIV is not just a health issue; it’s a human rights issue.
Stigma & discrimination still prevent LGBTQ communities from accessing care.
For adolescents, the barriers are even greater.
We need inclusive, youth-friendly, rights-based HIV services.

Children are still being left behind in the HIV response.
Only 57% are on treatment.
Adolescents face stigma, poor access, and low adherence.
We need:
✔ Early testing
✔ Youth-friendly services
✔ Community-driven care
No child should die from a preventable disease.

Since 2016, condom use among youths (15–24) in Southern Africa has stagnated, and in some cases declined.
Knowledge ≠ consistent use.
Barriers include:
• Gender inequality
• Stigma
• Limited youth-friendly services
Condoms prevent HIV & unintended pregnancy, but only if used.
