CCS Seminar Series: Defunding health justice: The consequences of US foreign aid withdrawal for SA communities
Print
 
The U.S. President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) has been instrumental in curbing the HIV epidemic, preventing millions of new infections through critical interventions such as voluntary medical male circumcision, prevention of mother-to-child transmission (PMTCT), and widespread access to antiretroviral therapy (ART). Beyond direct HIV services, PEPFAR’s investments have strengthened healthcare infrastructure, trained healthcare workers, and enhanced laboratory and supply chain systems, building resilient health systems capable of addressing not only HIV but also broader health challenges. Additionally, PEPFAR has empowered community-based organizations, fostering local ownership of the HIV response and improving service access for key populations. However, the recent freeze in PEPFAR funding threatens to disrupt essential HIV testing, treatment, and prevention services, particularly in resource-limited settings and among marginalized groups. This seminar examines the potential consequences of funding interruptions, explores strategies for mitigating harm, and discusses the long-term implications for global HIV control and the health system stability.
