UNAIDS Executive Director Michel Sidibé will present his progress report on 21 June followed by a presentation of the Committee of Cosponsoring Organizations (CCO) report highlighting the joint and specific Cosponsors’ activities during the previous twelve months. The report will be presented by Mr Yury Fedotov, Executive Director of UNODC, on behalf of the current CCO Chair Tony Lake, Executive Director of UNICEF.
