“Three decades into this crisis, let us set our sights on achieving the “three zeros” zero new HIV infections, zero discrimination and zero AIDS-related deaths.”

The basic building block of peace and security for all peoples is economic and social security, anchored in sustainable development. It is a key to all problems. Why? Because it allows us to address all the great issues-poverty, climate, environment and political stability-as parts of the whole.

As many micro-credit schemes across the world can testify, investment in women is the best investment for the future.

SUSTAINABLE PEACE IS POSSIBLE ONLY WITH WOMEN’S FULL PARTICIPATION, their perspectives, their leadership, their daily, equal presence wherever we seek to make and keep the peace.

Terrorism is a significant threat to peace and security, prosperity and people.

Saving our planet requires you to be ambitious in what you aim, and, equally, in how hard you work to reach your goal.

We must unite. Violence against women cannot be tolerated, in any form, in any context, in any circumstance, by any political leader or by any government.

Men must teach each other that real men do not violate or oppress women – and that a woman’s place is not just in the home or the field, but in schools and offices and boardrooms.

We have seen in the past where leaders have not been open-minded or have not been flexible. That’s why the people came out to the streets and shouted and chanted for more reforms and more freedoms.

People everywhere look to the United States to use its remarkable power to help lift humanity up and to work for the common good.

Women must be full partners in development, so they can lift themselves and their communities out of poverty.

My observation is China is thinking more as a global player than regionally, in both politics and economics.

Only through women’s full and equal participation in all areas of public and private life can we hope to achieve the sustainable, peaceful and just society promised in the United Nations Charter.

Climate change, demographics, water, food, energy, global health, women’s empowerment – these issues are all intertwined. We cannot look at one strand in isolation. Instead, we must examine how these strands are woven together.

The unity in diversity of the United States is one of the country’s greatest strengths.

The longer we delay, the more we will pay.

Migration is an expression of the human aspiration for dignity, safety and a better future. It is part of the social fabric, part of our very make-up as a human family

A taboo, attached to it…now we have more women infected with HIV/AIDS, many of those women were infected by their husbands who did not tell them

Money spent on carbon cuts is money we can’t use for effective investments in food aid, micronutrients, HIV/AIDS prevention, health and education infrastructure, and clean water and sanitation.

I enjoy being the messenger for God in terms of letting people know about HIV and AIDS.

The worst moment from all of this was driving from that doctor’s office, to tell my wife that I was HIV positive.

When I first found out I had HIV, I had to find somebody who was living with it, who could help me understand my journey and what I was going to have to deal with day-to-day.

The important thing is this Just because I’m doing well doesn’t mean that they’re going to do well if they get HIV. A lot of people have died since I have announced. This disease is not going anywhere.

So I helped educate sports, and then the world, that a man living with HIV can play basketball. He’s not going to give it to anybody by playing basketball.
