#BizTrends2025: Local and global economic outlook for 2025 - the "year of Trump risk"

Mike van der Westhuizen 23 Jan 2025

In the 2000s activists across the world campaigned for antiretroviral treatment to be made available to people with HIV. One of the consequences of this was PEPFAR, the United States government’s foreign aid HIV programme. Since 2003 it has saved millions of lives. But now its future is unclear.
