  1. Health and Sustainable Development: HIV in the Post-2015 Development Agenda Steve Kraus Director, Regional Support Team for Asia and the Pacific UNAIDS

  2. MDGs: PROS AND CONS

  3. POST-2015 DEVELOPMENT AGENDA:Regional and Global Consultations MDGs continue to be relevant Should address means of implementation and capacity of countries Should balance economic, social and environmental dimensions of sustainable development Flexible framework with scope for adaptation at regional and national levels Should address all countries

  4. Priorities of MDGs should be maintained Focus on comprehensive approach - universal coverage of health care Address non-communicable diseases in view of ageing populations Address determinants of health POST-2015 DEVELOPMENT AGENDA:Health-related Outcomes

  5. Inclusiveness: based on wide consultation with stakeholders from the outset UN SYSTEM Task Team Inputs Country context: adapted to the needs of individual countries Universality: influence policy makers in all countries at very different levels of development Linkages: underpinned by a convincing narrative to explain the assumptions

  6. A hierarchy of health goals Overarching health goal Below an over-arching health goal, a hierarchy of more sector and programme specific goals, targets and indicators can reflect existing agreements (including the current MDGs) Shift from relative reduction targets to absolute thresholds UN SYSTEM Task Team Inputs

  7. Health discussed as part of broader framework High-level Panel Recommendations Five transformative shifts 12 illustrative goals proposed Illustrative goal 4 is to ensure healthy lives 5 illustrative targets at national level

  8. Ensure Healthy Lives End preventable infant and under-5 deaths Increase by x% the proportion of children, adolescents, at-risk adults and older people that are fully vaccinated Reduce the burden of disease from HIV/AIDS, TBC, malaria, neglected tropical diseases and priority non-communicable diseases Ensure universal sexual and reproductive health and rights Decrease the maternal mortality ratio to no more than x per 100,000

  9. The MDGs are the point of departure for SDGs, but not the destination. SDGs must address in an integrated and balanced way the economic, social and environmental dimensions of sustainable development. SDGs must be universal and applicable to all countries. Flexible enough to have ownership of countries at different levels of development. SDGs will need to be concise, focused, few in number, easy to communicate, and measurable. SDG Open Working Group Session

  10. The SDGs will need to be supported by a narrative which brings out the interrelationships, drivers, strategies and approaches. Address the means of achieving any agreed goals. Strengthened global partnership among governments and effective and targeted partnerships involving all relevant stakeholders. Reliable and timely data in a majority of countries to measure and assess progress. SDG Open Working Group Session

  11. Health is a right and a goal in its own right. Important issues: universal health coverage; equitable access to quality basic health services; health promotion, prevention, treatment, and financial risk protection. Health MDGs could be integrated as targets under an overarching universal health goal. Agenda must take into account unfinished business of communicable diseases but non-communicable diseases increasingly affect all countries. SDG Open Working Group: Health and Population Dynamics

  12. There is a need to address access and health needs of persons with disabilities. Importance of equal access of women and girls to health-care services, including addressing women’s sexual and reproductive health, and ensuring universal access to safe, effective, affordable and acceptable modern methods of family planning. Ageing populations are a major health care challenge for many countries. There is an overlap between health risks facing the young and the old. Health and Population Dynamics

  13. Support independent goal/goals on health Work on clear targets and indicators Integrate health and HIV into other goals National level advocacy and capacity building Regional and sub-regional frameworks Other global frameworks and core mandates WAY FORWARD
