Recognizes that the HIV and AIDS epidemic is not over and that ending the epidemic as a public health threat by 2030 requires a fast-track response during the unprecedented window of opportunity provided by the next five years;

Encourages Governments, the United Nations system, civil society, local communities, families, the private sector and other partners to scale up efforts on an urgent basis to achieve the goals and targets contained in the 2011 Political Declaration on HIV and AIDS and to fulfil the unmet Millennium Development Goals that are relevant to HIV and AIDS, in particular Goal 6, including through sharing best practices and strengthening the capacities of developing countries;

Recognizes that in order to ensure that no one is left behind, responses and resources need to be focused on evidence-based interventions and on populations and locations where they will have the greatest impact, in accordance with specific national and regional epidemiological patterns;

Underscores that the integration of the HIV and AIDS response with the health system improves outcomes and, at the same time, contributes to the strengthening of health systems, and in that regard encourages the sharing of best practices, including through country case studies;

Reaffirms its resolution 2013/11, and in particular the value of the lessons learned from the global AIDS response for the post-2015 development agenda, including those learned from the unique approach of the Joint Programme, and also reaffirms that the Joint Programme offers the United Nations system a useful example, to be considered, as appropriate, of enhanced strategic coherence, coordination, results-based focus, inclusive governance and country-level impact, based on national contexts and priorities;

Looks forward to the high-level meeting on HIV/AIDS to be convened by the General Assembly in 2016, and underlines the important opportunity provided by this meeting to further fast-track the response and to advance the ambitious commitment to end the HIV and AIDS epidemic as a public health threat by 2030;

Notes the ongoing need to close the AIDS resource gap, in line with the principles of shared responsibility and global solidarity, encourages countries to scale up domestic and international funding for the response, and emphasizes that action is needed to ensure political, programmatic and financial accountability at all levels;

Requests the Secretary-General to transmit to the Economic and Social Council, at its substantive session of 2017, a report prepared by the Executive Director of the Joint Programme in collaboration with its co-sponsors and other relevant organizations and bodies of the United Nations system, on progress made in implementing a coordinated response by the United Nations system to the HIV and AIDS epidemic.
