Supporting UNAIDS to advance policy and laws impacting HIV/AIDS.

The O’Neill Institute’s Global Health Policy and Politics Initiative at Georgetown University has been designated by the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS) as a United Nations Collaborating Center. Bridging the Georgetown School of Health and the O’Neill Institute, the Global Health Policy and Politics Initiative leverages scholarship and technical strengths of policy and law experts embedded across Georgetown University. In this role, O’Neill will support and advance policy and laws impacting HIV/AIDS with the overarching goal of addressing the inequalities driving the pandemic.
