“When communities, civil society, and governments work together, access becomes real,” said Tenu Avafia, Deputy Executive Director of Unitaid. “With price parity now secured, we must ensure strong political commitment, sufficient funding, and continued community leadership. If we succeed, this medicine could change the course of the AIDS epidemic and bring us closer to ending HIV as a public health threat.” Unitaid is working closely with grassroots groups in South Africa, Brazil, and beyond to ensure lenacapavir fits into people’s lives. Communities are not just beneficiaries: they are partners at the heart of this effort. At the same time, Unitaid is supporting governments to plan, budget, and integrate this tool into national HIV programs. This agreement is a breakthrough for affordable access, but real impact will come from the leadership of communities and civil society working alongside governments to make prevention a reality for all.
