The South African National Strategic Plan on HIV, TB and STIs 2017- 2022 (NSP) serves as a roadmap for the next stage of our journey towards a future where these three diseases are no longer public health problems.

This summary, published by the South African National AIDS Council, presents the 8 goals and targets that will guide the response over the next 5 years.
