AGP Executive Report

Last update: 2 hours ago

HIV Prevention Push: The US and the Global Fund plan to expand access to lenacapavir, a twice-yearly injectable HIV prevention option, aiming to protect an additional one million people in high-burden countries—an important development for mother-to-child transmission efforts in the region. Maternal & Child Health Funding: Lesotho’s Ministry of Health launched a data-driven M2.3bn investment case to cut preventable maternal and newborn deaths, unmet family planning needs, and gender-based violence/child marriage, with a focus on mobilising domestic resources. Flu Alert in Lesotho: The Ministry of Health is investigating clusters of influenza-like illness in seven districts, with rapid response teams deployed to affected schools and villages. Menstrual Health Education: Parents and guardians were urged to talk openly with daughters about puberty and biological changes, alongside guidance on hygiene and responsible use of sanitary products. World Bank Financing: Lesotho and the World Bank signed over M841m for energy access, skills development, and nutrition improvements. Immunisation Coordination: CHAL will launch an immunisation network in Maseru to strengthen advocacy, community engagement, and coordination. Palliative Care at Home: Starlight of Hope Hospice will start providing home-based care from July for cancer and other incurable illnesses. Access to Clean Water: Youth delegates called for clean water infrastructure for every African child, highlighting WASH gaps even where water resources exist. Regional Migration Pressure (Health & Safety): South Africa’s Sherwood crisis continues as thousands of migrants wait in overcrowded conditions amid xenophobic threats, raising urgent sanitation and public health concerns.
