Integrating the HIV response into universal health coverage
Fronline AIDS - "New research reveals opportunities and major areas of concern as countries move towards UHC, while at the same time transitioning from international to domestic funding for HIV programmes.
(...) Global political attention for UHC comes at a time when international funding for HIV and AIDS is declining5 and governments are expected to significantly boost their efforts to fund their own HIV response and achieve UHC. If these funding trends persist, we face the risk that government health spending may not be enough to realise UHC and will have to be spread even more thinly across a wide variety of health priorities, threatening the availability and quality of comprehensive health and HIV and AIDS services. It might also leave marginalised groups behind and endanger the critical role of the community response to HIV." (Photo: © Frontline AIDS)
