At the same time, Ukraine has demonstrated the most convincing results of taking control over HIV and TB epidemic. We are proud of the fact that it is the civil society organizations and key communities have become the driving force behind this campaign – 135 organizations from 18 countries have provided solid arguments for the further full-fledged work of the Global Fund, setting their own work as example!“
