The UN Decade of Healthy Ageing (2021–30) for people living with HIV

: The Decade of Healthy Ageing (2021-30; the Decade), proclaimed by the UN in 2020, is a global initiative aimed at fostering collaborations to transform the world into a better place to live and grow older in. The Decade presents a positive vision of ageing, discarding the stereotypes of diseases and disabilities and promoting focus on capacities and abilities. This approach will help to foster a more inclusive world and, consequently, care systems, which value the dignity of each individual. Although the initiative represents a resource for the global population, the Decade also provides a unique opportunity for the large community of people living with HIV in terms of increased visibility and long-term solutions for their specific ageing-related health issues. This Personal View focuses on the relevance of the Decade in improving the lives of people in the HIV community, the rationale for a stronger engagement of people living with HIV in this initiative, and the potential to reduce global disparities between the HIV community and the general population and among different global regions.
