5/ We call on the U.S. administration to prioritize global health and restore humanitarian aid. The fight against HIV cannot afford to lose momentum—not in the Philippines, not anywhere.

4/ Why does this matter globally? Because HIV knows no borders. Disrupting funding for HIV prevention anywhere weakens progress everywhere. It’s a reminder that health crises demand global solidarity, not delays.

3/ For a country battling a growing HIV epidemic, even a 90-day pause could mean hundreds of missed opportunities to prevent new infections. It’s not just about numbers—it’s about lives, livelihoods, and futures at stake.

2/ The recent U.S. executive order to halt humanitarian aid for 90 days puts vital HIV prevention programs in jeopardy. This includes funding that supports PrEP access for vulnerable populations like young people & LGBTQIA+ communities in the Philippines.

How will the world remember us: as a generation that halted progress—or as one that fought for a future free of HIV/AIDS? The choice is ours.

Now is the time to amplify our voices and demand action. Call on policymakers, organizations, and individuals to reject this dangerous policy. Lives depend on it. #HIVCareIsAHumanRight

History has shown us: When the world turns its back on HIV, the virus gains ground. Trump’s EO risks reversing the hard-won victories of decades, pushing us further from the goal of ending the epidemic by 2030.

The HIV epidemic is not just a global health issue; it’s a justice issue. Denying aid to those who need it most reflects a failure of compassion and responsibility. Fighting HIV isn’t charity—it’s an investment in global stability, equity, and human dignity.

Moreover, this decision undermines marginalized communities already facing stigma. #LGBTQIA+ populations, women, and children will suffer the most, as lifesaving services—often the only services available—dry up.

It’s not just the health consequences. By abandoning these commitments, the U.S. damages its global leadership in #health diplomacy, eroding trust with international partners. This decision endangers collaborations vital for fighting pandemics beyond HIV.

This halt disproportionately affects vulnerable populations in low- and middle-income countries, where HIV/AIDS is still a leading cause of illness and death. Without funding, clinics will close, medications will run out, and preventable infections will rise.

For decades, U.S. programs like #PEPFAR have been lifelines in the global HIV response, saving millions of lives. Cutting #humanitarian aid doesn’t just defund programs; it disrupts access to treatment, prevention, and education for communities most in need.

As we commemorate #WorldAIDSDay, let’s commit to a future where prevention, testing, treatment, and care are accessible to all. Let’s walk the rights path toward health and dignity for everyone.

This year’s theme reminds us: health is a human right. To end HIV, we must:
✔️ Center human rights in all HIV services
✔️ Fight discrimination
✔️ Ensure access and equity for marginalized populations

Care and Support:
Stigma in healthcare, workplaces, and communities keeps people from accessing vital care. Discrimination erodes trust and violates fundamental rights to dignity and equality.

Treatment:
Millions still lack access to life-saving ART due to healthcare inequities. Barriers like cost, discrimination, and lack of infrastructure violate the right to health. Everyone deserves access to treatment that can save lives.

Testing:
HIV testing is often avoided due to stigma or fear of legal repercussions. Worse, in some places, coerced testing violates autonomy and dignity. HIV testing must be voluntary, confidential, and rights-based.

Prevention:
Access to tools like condoms, PrEP, and PEP is limited by stigma, discriminatory laws, and poverty. Criminalization of sex work, drug use, and LGBTQIA+ identities further denies people their right to protect themselves.
