In 2012, the United Nations continued to promote health, food security and nutrition. A record 9.7 million people in low-and middle-income countries had received antiretroviral therapy by the end of 2012. In spite of the significant progress made, aids remained a global challenge, with an estimated 35.3 million people living with HIV, 2.3 million people newly infected, and 1.6 million dying of aids-related illnesses during the year. The Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS (unaids) collaborated with its co-sponsors and other relevant organizations and bodies of the UN system to implement a coordinated response to the HIV/AIDS epidemic. During the year, UN-Women became the eleventh co-sponsor of unaids.
