UNAIDS 95-95-95 Targets

HIV/AIDS Program

A set of global HIV testing and treatment targets set by UNAIDS as the successor to its earlier 90-90-90 targets, calling for 95 percent of all people living with HIV to know their status, 95 percent of those diagnosed to be receiving antiretroviral therapy, and 95 percent of those on treatment to have achieved viral suppression, with a horizon of 2025. The 95-95-95 targets keep the same fast-track testing-and-treatment logic that made 90-90-90 the most successful element of UNAIDS's earlier Fast-Track strategy, while raising the bar to the more ambitious 95 percent threshold at each stage and adding explicit attention to meeting women's HIV and sexual and reproductive health needs, to person-centred combination prevention, to an integrated approach to overall wellbeing, and to removing the social and legal barriers that keep people from using HIV services. UNAIDS and its partners track progress toward the targets both globally and within specific subpopulations of people living with HIV, reflecting how far testing and treatment coverage still varies between different groups even in countries approaching the targets overall.

Delivers Practice

Entity-backed identity for the program-kind enum value this public health program already carries, resolved to a health practice by an explicit value-to-entity map (phase 3 bucket conversion, docs\design_entity_backed_browse_buckets_20260928.md). The program-kind fact itself stays on the program unchanged.

  • para on the targets' December 2020 release
    In December 2020, UNAIDS released a new set of ambitious targets calling for 95% of all people living with HIV to know their HIV status, 95% of all people with diagnosed HIV infection to receive sustained antiretroviral therapy, and 95% of all people receiving antiretroviral therapy to have viral suppression by 2025.
  • para on the targets' June 2021 UN adoption
    Adopted by United Nations Member states in June 2021 as part of the new Political Declaration on HIV and AIDS, these targets, combined with ambitious primary prevention targets and focused attention to supporting enablers, aim to bridge inequalities in treatment coverage and outcomes and accelerate HIV incidence reductions by focusing on progress in all sub-populations, age groups and geographic settings.

Some targets are maintained from the previous 2021-2026 Strategy because they have not yet been achieved by all countries and remain crucial.
