Health Affairs Blog: The Future Of Investment In PEPFAR: Understanding PEPFAR’s Multiple Economic, Health, And Diplomatic Impacts
Margaret K. Saunders, deputy editor of global health at Health Affairs, highlights keys studies Health Affairs has published exploring PEPFAR’s role in addressing the global AIDS epidemic. The studies discuss PEPFAR’s role in contributing to economic stability in countries that received PEPFAR funding, supporting health governance and health systems, improving access to health services such as maternal-child care for African women not infected with HIV, and providing lessons for U.S. global health diplomacy. Saunders also highlights a study on the ineffectiveness of PEPFAR’s abstinence and faithfulness programs in sub-Saharan Africa (4/17).
