The INCB’s scientific impartiality and independence gives you a unique role to support countries to address issues related to drugs. UNAIDS would be grateful if you would consider using your mandate to go further and speak louder than those of us who are guided by consensus among UN Member States. UNAIDS stands ready to work more closely with INCB and other UN agencies to be agents of change. Drugs and drug policy are about health, human rights, and development. Together we need to ensure that we keep the promise of Agenda 2030 to leave no one behind.
