In April 2026, AVAC, the Well Project and the Martin Delaney Collaboratories brought together skilled advocates together, along with leading researchers and cure experts, for the US HIV Cure Academy. The Academy is designed to strengthen understanding of HIV cure science and build research translation skills in support of advocacy efforts. Learn more.
Prevention Option:
A new proposed White House OMB rule seeking greater political oversight of federal grantmaking puts research in peril; vaccine developments accelerate as the Ebola Bundibugyo outbreak grows; the US Secretary of State takes questions from multiple Congressional committees about the future of PEPFAR; responding to the Ebola outbreak; support of Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance; and US global health security.
In a landmark moment, South Africa today became the 9th African country to introduce lencapavir (LEN) for HIV prevention. South Africa’s introduction of LEN is especially significant given the country’s central role in shaping the regional HIV response and the global PrEP market. As the largest PrEP market in the world, South Africa’s leadership can help drive the demand, volume, market confidence and lower prices needed to accelerate equitable access across the continent and the world.
Prevention Option:
In an ongoing attempt to decimate and politicize science, the White House Office of Management and Budget proposed sweeping new regulations to significantly expand political interference in federal research funding decisions across all federal grants, threatening science, global health and the HIV/AIDS response.
Injectable lenacapavir for PrEP (LEN) is rolling out across Africa faster than any HIV prevention option to date. This Friday, South Africa will become the ninth African country to introduce LEN. Read for updated resources to track this progress and ensure the field moves with speed, scale and equity.
A commentary by eight former US CDC directors urges the US Department of State to reform PEPFAR, not dismantle it; the growing Ebola outbreak and ongoing hantavirus concerns underscore the risks abrupt changes pose to global health security; and a proposed new US federal grant regulation could significantly expand political influence over scientific funding decisions and research priorities.
We are excited to release our first AI & HIV Newsletter! This new quarterly resource will provide advocates and the global community with the information and resources to engage with AI in ways that strengthen equity, protect individuals and communities and prioritize their inclusion, and ensure that technological innovation advances the HIV response rather than undermines it.
