This third National HIV/AIDS Strategy is about partnerships:
  • partnerships in a variety of areas between all governments - Commonwealth, State and Territory, and local;
  • partnerships between governments and communities, especially communities made up of and representing people with HIV/AIDS;
  • a partnership between the research community and those involved in turning research results into practical outcomes in education and prevention and treatment and care;
  • the partnership between Australia and others in the international community;
  • the partnership between all levels of government, the community and medical sector organisations, which has contributed so much to national outcomes;
  • the partnership between all people of goodwill - those with the virus and those without - in politics, the community, the media and elsewhere, united in a dedicated effort to combat the effects of HIV/AIDS.
