Hi everyone,
I have been searching and searching for the latest HIV global figures for the 15-24 years old age-group. Esp. new HIV infections & prevalence. As I am doing a research project with this group. I have searched the UNAIDS Info site; UNICEF site - including use of these search terms "UNICEF analysis of UNAIDS 2017 estimates" - as I believe these are the latest figures by UAIDS in July 2018. No luck.
I am only able to find regional, sub-national, and national figures. Plus, most of the global data for the 15-24 years age-group appears to be aggregated for mainly young women. Whereas I need latest global data for the entire group.
Avert (see link below), seems to have a useful pie-chart - above the heading 'Why are young people vulnerable to HIV?' But whether these are global or regional figures, and the exact source of data is unclear. The chart only cites UNAIDS 2017. And the reference list in document has several UNAIDS 2017 works - which I have searched to no avail.

Any ideas of where to look would be appreciated.
Dear Carol,
