Salvador de Bahia

English
Mayor's Message

"Salvador was one of the first capitals in the Northeast to commit to Accelerating the Local Response to AIDS by reducing its impact on public health by 2030. The response to AIDS depends on care strategies that are strongly related to health promotion and human rights policies. It is a commitment of the municipality, to expand the diagnosis, the timely treatment of people living with HIV / AIDS and reach the vulnerable population based on good care practices based on zero discrimination."

Antônio Carlos Magalhães Neto
Mayor of Salvador

Kingston

English
Mayor's Message

“As Mayor of Kingston, it is my pleasure to support and have our city participate in the Fast-Track Cities initiative.

A key component in reducing new HIV infections and AIDS-related deaths is reducing and eliminating the stigma and discrimination associated with getting tested for HIV and knowing your HIV status.

The most urbanized parishes in Jamaica have the greatest cumulative number of reported HIV cases. Therefore, as custodians of the well-being of the city of Kingston, the most urbanized city in Jamaica, we have a vested interest in the success of the Fast-Track Cities initiative.

Saber es poder or Knowledge is power. This is the approach I encourage people to take regarding their HIV status. Know your HIV status! Get tested for HIV! And be better able to prevent new HIV infections and AIDS-related deaths.

Kingston will, through this global network, improve the number of persons who are aware of their status and receive ARV treatment while simultaneously combatting stigma and discrimination through increased knowledge and awareness that we will obtain from this initiative.

It is my pleasure to partner with UNAIDS and IAPAC as we make a united effort to advance the welfare and healthcare of those who are affected by HIV around us.”

Delroy Williams
Mayor of Kingston and St. Andrew

"We all share the same certainty: We no longer have the right to see and bear the worsening of the HIV epidemic when solutions exist. And because these solutions exist, we have no excuse for inaction. AIDS is a political fight, so I want to say it loud and clear: Paris is committed to ending the AIDS epidemic."

Bucharest

English

"Bucharest joined the other capitals in the fight towards a world without AIDS. The people fighting the epidemics are supported by the courage of the others: from individuals to communities, from families to public institutions, everyone is involved in reaching this objective. The General Council of Bucharest is part of this fight. For us, solidarity and involvement means supporting those fighting this battle. As such, we approved the agreement between the City of Bucharest and ARAS – the Romanian Association against AIDS, which means HIV prevention services, but also social and professional reintegration for the vulnerable persons in the capital. We are aware that the road is still long, that we live in a world where marginalization and stigma are still present, but we work towards changing this environment and supporting the improvement of life conditions of vulnerable persons, regardless of sex, ethnicity, age, sexual orientation, social status, etc."

Valentin Voicu
Councilor in the General Council of Bucharest, Member of the Health and Social Protection Commission

Amsterdam

English
Mayor's Message

“AIDS is not over and there is no reason to lean backwards. But at the same time we should avoid despair, we have good reasons to be hopeful. Amsterdam will start at home by stepping up our efforts to ensure we will be an aids-free city in 2030. It is an acknowledgement of all that we have achieved in our response to HIV. In recent years Amsterdam met the UN 90/90/90 goals. These facts means a lot in terms of improving the lives of thousands of people.

But that is still not the case around the world. The reasons why so many people in the world are still denied treatment are almost never medical reasons. They are bigotry, homophobia, religious fanaticism, unjust economic systems, and indifferent governments. Our weapons are not just medicine and evidence, but more important, our ideals of freedom, open mindedness and social progress. We believe Amsterdam has a responsibility to share its experiences with other cities. If cities cooperate internationally (like in the fast track cities initiative) urban centers around the world will greatly benefit from exchanging success stories and lessons learned in striving for zero new infections. Amsterdam will do its part, let’s do it together worldwide.”

Femke Halsema
Mayor of Amsterdam

Washington DC

English
Message from the Mayor

“We have made tremendous progress over the past decade in combatting HIV/AIDS. We have been able to decrease the number of new HIV cases in the District, and when residents are diagnosed with HIV, they are getting care faster and they are starting – and staying on – treatments that we know are effective. Now, we need to continue getting the word out about what more can be done. We want all Washingtonians to know how to get tested and how to access the care and resources available to them.”

Muriel Bowser
Mayor of the District of Columbia
