In New York, Y+ Global joined CSOs, @UNAIDS & supportive EU member states to prepare for the 2026 HIV Political Declaration negotiations. Ikka Noviyanti, ExD & Kimberly Springer, Chair of the Board, are advocating to protect the commitments made in 2021 & ensure that youth priorities remain front and centre in an inclusive, rights-based Political Declaration.

READY+ believes young people deserve health services that are accessible, welcoming, and designed with their realities in mind. 🌍🧠 We are excited to introduce the Youth Friendly Service Toolkit, a comprehensive package of resources developed to strengthen the quality and accessibility of health services for young people. Co-created and validated through workshops with consortium partners and youth representatives, the toolkit is available in English and Portuguese and includes: ✔️ A core toolkit ✔️ A facility checklist ✔️ Supporting certificates These resources has been designed for both web and print use, and they will support implementing partners to identify service gaps, establish standards for youth-friendly care, and advocate for the sustainable integration of youth-friendly approaches into national health systems. Meaningful youth-centered healthcare starts with systems that listen, adapt, and respond to young people. ❤️ Access the toolkit here: readymovement.org/resources/yout… #READYMovement #WeAreREADY

Everyone has a right to health. Regardless who they are or who they love. Protecting the human rights of all people and breaking down barriers to services and care, is how we protect the health of all people. #IDAHOBIT #LoveIsLove

This #IDAHOBIT, we celebrate the courage and resilience of LGBTQI+ communities. United to end AIDS.

Kimberly Springer, Chair of Y+ Global Board and @ngopcb Delegate for LAC, calls for sustainable investment in community leadership ahead of the 2026 UN HLM on HIV/AIDS. “Community systems cannot continue operating on passion & volunteerism alone. Meaningful community leadership requires sustainable investment.”

The opening speech by @floriako was powerful and thought-provoking. It places us right at reflection on how the HIV response moves from emergency response to sustainable systems #plhivleadersnow Find the full speech here: tinyurl.com/4hmvh65r @UNAIDS @PreventionAC @afrocab_hiv @NYPplus_Network @StopAidsAllianc @ncdalliance @NEPHAKKENYA @znnp @mena_community @ITPCglobal
