As seismic shifts in global health funding and strategy unfold, the ICASA conference comes at a pivotal time. For more than three decades, ICASA has served as a critical platform founded by African scientists, activists, and advocates to fight stigma, drive research, and elevate African leadership in the HIV response. This year, this mission is more urgent than ever.

This week’s newsletter publishes just as the Global Fund’s 8th Replenishment Summit in South Africa is taking place. The Global Fund represents one of the strongest symbols of global solidarity in the fight against HIV, TB, and malaria, but, despite early pledges from several European Union member states and private partners, key donors (including the UK, Germany and France) appear to be stepping back, with smaller or uncertain pledges at this critical moment, and it is not yet clear what the US will do.
Prevention Option:
African countries reaffirm support for a new multilateral Pandemic Accord even as pressure mounts to sign bilateral US health agreements. The UK has reduced its upcoming Global Fund pledge just weeks before the replenishment summit. Meanwhile, additional regulatory submissions of LEN for PrEP are being made reflecting accelerated actions and real lessons learned from earlier PrEP rollout.
We’re seeing one of the most challenging moments in HIV prevention history – and the cruelest ironies. On one side, science and advocacy are delivering unprecedented progress via injectable lenacapavir (LEN) for PrEP. On the other, the global systems meant to deliver LEN and other potential innovations are being dismantled.
This week, Zambia joined South Africa in approving injectable lenacapavir for PrEP (LEN), marking a new era of accelerated efforts to scale-up access. At the same time, there’s sharpening analyses of the major shifts in US strategy for foreign aid and global health leadership, with deep implications for the future of funding, multilateralism, and equity.
This round up offers on-the-ground tools for rolling out injectable lenacapavir; updates on AVAC’s court case on foreign assistance; resources on the state of defending rights to health and inclusion for key populations; a look at AVAC’s Advocacy Navigator program; updates on DPP at ICFP; and resources for cure research and the prevention of STIs.
Rooted in a supported mentoring model, AVAC’s Advocacy Navigator program equips emerging leaders to make meaningful impact. This retrospective shows how their work shapes policy, informs communities, strengthens the HIV response, and changes lives.
Advances over the past ten years toward an HIV cure have moved cure research from a dream to an attainable goal. The field has learned more about the power of the innate immune system through individuals who have controlled their virus, either spontaneously or post-treatment, and these insights have spurred innovation and momentum in cure research.
