Progress towards the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) has been mixed, and many observers have noted the tendency for development actors to address individual MDGs largely in isolation from one another. This in turn has resulted in missed opportunities to catalyse greater interdisciplinary collaboration and innovation towards MDG achievement. The term 'AIDS and MDGs' is gaining currency as an approach that aims to explore, strengthen and leverage the links between AIDS and other health and development issues. Drawing from academic literature and from MDG country reports, this article sets out three important pillars to an AIDS and MDGs approach: 1) understanding how AIDS and the other MDGs affect one another; 2) documenting and exchanging lessons learned across MDGs; and 3) creating cross- MDG synergy. We propose broader policy level implications for this approach and how UNDP and other partners can take this agenda forward. Because the MDGs explicitly locate HIV within a broader international commitment to human development targets, they provide a critical platform for development partners to galvanise resources, political will and momentum behind a broader, systematic and structural approach to HIV, health and development.
千年发展目标（MDGs）的进展喜忧参半，许多观察人士指出，发展行为体倾向于将各个 MDG 彼此孤立地加以解决。这反过来又错失了促进更广泛的跨学科合作和创新以实现千年发展目标的机会。“艾滋病与千年发展目标”这一术语越来越流行，成为一种旨在探索、加强和利用艾滋病与其他健康和发展问题之间联系的方法。本文从学术文献和千年发展目标国家报告中，提出了艾滋病与千年发展目标方法的三个重要支柱：1）了解艾滋病和其他千年发展目标如何相互影响；2）记录和交流千年发展目标方面的经验教训；3）创造跨千年发展目标协同作用。我们提出了这一方法在更广泛的政策层面上的影响，以及开发计划署和其他伙伴如何推进这一议程。由于千年发展目标明确将艾滋病毒置于更广泛的国际人类发展目标承诺范围内，因此它们为发展伙伴提供了一个关键平台，可在艾滋病毒、健康和发展方面激发资源、政治意愿和动力，以采取更广泛、系统和结构性的方法。
