This booklet tells the story of the men and women who have been working towards universal access, whether in consultations in their countries, regions or globally, or through their dedicated activities in government, the private sector, journalism, activism and all forms of service within the AIDS response. It explains the necessity for universal access, which encompasses within it all previous initiatives, but goes a step further by daring to dream that one day, all those who need it will have access to HIV prevention, treatment, care and support. It reviews the political process around universal access, in countries, regions and globally, and it outlines the path that countries will have to forge for themselves, with the help of regional and international partners, in pursuit of this goal.
