2022 marked Vietnam's 10-year journey to sustain its HIV response with domestic financing (2013 – 2022). The country now stands out as a global example for sustainability and domestic resource mobilization for its HIV program.
This video was followed by a presentation from USAID’s M-RITE project and several sessions on the breadth and depth of the LHSS Activity’s interventions.
The Russian invasion of Ukraine has caused many doctors to leave the country, compromised patients’ safety when seeking care, and displaced large portions of the population away from their primary health care providers. A strong national telemedicine system will be key to assuring access to health services for Ukrainians, now and in the future. Experiences from other conflict/disaster areas may provide insights, helping Ukraine assess and implement its own telemedicine response.
