The zero stigma and discrimination targets are critical components for attaining an AIDS-Free generation by the year 2030. We, the stakeholders of the Yaounde V municipality are engaged towards ending all forms of stigma. The time to redouble our efforts is now, we now have the knowledge and the expertise, all we need is a joint effort. We are all invited to become stigma mitigation ambassadors for the attainment of this goal. The Fast-Track Cities E-Learning platform is open to us to strengthen our capacities. I thus invite all health workers to take these free training modules for a synergistic fight against the stigma and discrimination.

The existence of inequalities/ disparities in socio-economic status has contributed to the spread of HIV and other diseases in our communities. It is thus critical that we harness our efforts to improve the quality of life and close the inequality gaps for our population.
