HIV/AIDS Policy Direction

It must be admitted that much progress has been made in development across various fields under the leadership of President Joko Widodo. However, it should also be acknowledged that in 2014-2019, development in human rights, especially concerning minority groups, has been worsening instead.

Deaconess Enni Simanjuntak cradles a 3-year-old child who is living with HIV/AIDS on Tuesday (16/7/2019) at the Batak Protestant Church’s House of Love in Nainggolan district, Samosir regency, North Sumatra. The shelter is home to children with HIV/AIDS, who face discrimination at school, in the community and even from relatives.

It must be admitted that much progress has been made in development across various fields under the leadership of President Joko “Jokowi” Widodo.

However, it should also be acknowledged that in 2014-2019, development in human rights, especially concerning minority groups, has been worsening instead. This is seen in the performance of health programs closely related to marginalized communities, particularly in HIV/AIDS prevention programs.
