This report has been prepared under the leadership and coordination of the National AIDS Authority (NAA) and with broad participation of all key stakeholders in Cambodia's response to HIV and AIDS. The consultative process involved key government ministries and departments, civil society, including representation of people living with HIV and of most-at-risk populations, and development partners. The report demonstrates Cambodia's success in building one single comprehensive system to track the HIV epidemic and to monitor and evaluate the national response to it. Although new data has not yet become available for all the 25 UNGASS indicators, Cambodia is this year able to present data against several indicators that could not be reported in previous rounds.
