"Kampala is at the heart of the country and the only capital city in Uganda hence characterized by challenges such as high rural urban migration, influx of the urban poor, and high demand for quality health services among others. The dynamics above call for strong advocacy and co-ordination especially from the perspective of resource mobilization if the barriers to access to HIV services and Behavioral change are to be broken. As the mayor that is driven by equity and services delivery for the city populace, I pledge to strongly advocate for allocation of resources geared towards HIV services delivery and create a platform for strategic discussions about the HIV response in addition to propelling of prevention and Behavior change drive among the youth as a known high risk group in the city. I am well aware that prevention is far less costly than treatment."
