Cambodia 2017 Country Operational Plan Strategic Direction Summary

The Government of Cambodia has made significant progress in addressing HIV/AIDS for the past 25 years. In 2013, Cambodia announced its intent to eliminate new HIV infections by achieving the 90-90-90 targets by 2020 and going further to achieve 95-95-95 (and fewer than 300 new HIV infections annually) by 2025 – coming close to achieving an AIDS Free Generation. As of December 2016, Cambodia had diagnosed approximately 83% of the estimated population of PLHIV, placed 97% of diagnosed PLHIV on ART, and had documented viral load suppression on 81% of PLHIV on ART . The exisiting PEPFAR strategy has helped to drive this progress, particularly in ensuring ensuring that PLHIV are placed on ART, retained in care, and receive quality-assured viral load testing.
