"On the ground, we must raise awareness of the parties to conflict regarding conduct towards civilian populations in armed conflicts that may exacerbate the spread of HIV/AIDS. It is also important to ensure the operationality of the HIV/AIDS prevention and treatment component in security sector reform activities and in disarmament, demobilization and reintegration mechanisms at the post-conflict stage. Finally, we must also strengthen programmes to combat HIV/AIDS in peacekeeping and peacebuilding missions, and continue to ensure the effectiveness of zero tolerance measures."
