AIDS in Africa: Three scenarios to 2005

UNAIDS, in collaboration with the African Union, African Development Bank and the Economic Commission for Africa, has organized the launch of the UNAIDS publication “AIDS in Africa: Three scenarios to 2025” that will take place on Friday 4 March 2005 at the United Nations Conference Center in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.

The publication is about AIDS and Africa, and the world’s response to it. The document presents three stories describing possible futures. Each of the three scenarios describes a different, plausible way in which the AIDS epidemic could play out across the whole of the African continent over the next twenty years. These scenarios represent a crucial step in making sense of the future of the AIDS epidemic in Africa.
