Abstract
At the millennium, over 150 world leaders met at the Millennium Summit to establish a vision for the United Nations in the upcoming years. They discussed the problems of poverty, economic development, public health, and education on a global level and proposed interventions in the form of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs): eight goals for improving the aforementioned issues in the first twenty years of the new millennium. Millennium Development Goal 6, which seeks to combat HIV/aids, malaria, and other diseases, has seen less progress than the UN would have hoped. Three targets make up this goal, a necessary division because combating aids has little to do with the fight against malaria. The first two targets of MDG 6 are to "Have halted by 2015 and begun to reverse the spread of HIV/aids" and "Achieve, by 2010, universal access to treatment for HIV/aids for all those who need it".
