NEW DELHI: Mukesh Ambani-led Reliance Industries along with United Nations will be launching an innovative partnership to fight against HIV/AIDS in India.
RIL would be launching the initiative along with UNAIDS, the joint United Nations programme on HIV/AIDS.
The partnership would support India's efforts to scale up towards Universal Access to HIV prevention, treatment, care and support, among others, RIL said in a statement today.
Specific focus would be on expansion of healthcare outreach to rural populations, especially serving those people living with HIV, it added.
"I am convinced that such a business model will enable countries to quicken the pace of action in scaling up programmes and meet the needs of hard to reach populations," UN Assistant Secretary General and UNAIDS Deputy Executive Director Programmes Michel Sidibe said.
