The initiative “Coordination in Action: Applying the Three Ones Principles in the Russian Federation” was launched jointly by the Russian Government and UNAIDS in early 2005. This initiative, funded by DfID, Sida, the U.S. Government, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and several UN agencies aims at promoting and facilitating a major change in the national response to HIV and AIDS to enable broad multisectoral, well-coordinated and expanded action using the “Three Ones” as guiding principles.
Alongside with the implementation of the 'Coordination in Action' initiative UNAIDS has been actively supporting a wide-range of projects working on leadership, advocacy and policy development. Programme supports national efforts towards implementation of the Declaration of Commitment on HIV/AIDS and universal access to HIV prevention, treatment, care and support. It acts as liaison to build and strengthen partnerships between state and non-governmental organizations, the private sector and the international donor community. The Program provides support, information and consultation on all aspects of the response to HIV and AIDS.
