The radical funding cuts and near-dismantling of USAID have left massive deficits in South Africa’s AIDS response and have blown up the public health research & advocacy landscape.
It is clear that the largest economy in the world will no longer be investing in global health – or in the strengthening of liberal democratic values worldwide. Rising inequality & technofeudalism, the advance of AI and the ongoing destruction of our environment and democratic values are great cause for concern. Our current systems are eating us alive and we now more than ever need strong global cooperation, activism and checks on power.
