At a crossroads: responding to a new AIDS emergency

Our new reports show 2.7 million people across eight countries in Africa are at risk of losing HIV prevention services and widespread disruption to HIV testing and treatment – yet some African governments beginning to explore innovative solutions.

These reports were developed as part of our Transition Initiative with coalitions of people living with HIV, young people, key populations and civil society organisations across eight African countries: Angola, Kenya, Malawi, Mozambique, Nigeria, Tanzania, Uganda and Zimbabwe.

Frontline AIDS’ Transition Initiative was launched in May 2025 to empower communities and civil society to shape the transition of HIV services from international donors to sustainably financed government- and community-led systems. Its aim is a future where local communities are at the heart of HIV service delivery, with governments as strong, accountable partners, ensuring access to prevention, treatment and care for all.
