    Neftaly: Advocating for Sustainable State Funding of HIV Care for Key Populations

    Evidence-Based, Needs-Driven, Locally-Owned

    As international donor support for HIV programming begins to plateau or decline in many regions, the need for sustainable, country-owned financing has become more urgent than ever. In particular, key populations—including sex workers, men who have sex with men, people who use drugs, transgender people, and incarcerated populations—remain underserved, despite facing the highest burden of HIV.

    Neftaly is leading a bold advocacy initiative across five countries in the region to ensure a strategic and sustainable transition to state funding for the full continuum of HIV care, grounded in evidence and the needs of key populations.

    Our Vision

    A region where national governments take ownership of the HIV response—investing in inclusive, equitable, and resilient systems that protect the rights and health of all people, especially the most vulnerable.

    What We Advocate For

    1. Increased Domestic Financing for HIV Services

    We call for national budgets that allocate sufficient and consistent funds to cover the full HIV care continuum—from prevention and testing to treatment, care, and support—specifically addressing the needs of key populations.

    2. Data-Driven Resource Allocation

    Neftaly promotes the use of disaggregated data and cost-effectiveness evidence to guide health financing decisions, ensuring that resources are directed where they are needed most.

    3. Inclusion of Key Populations in Planning and Budgeting

    We advocate for meaningful participation of key population-led organizations in national health financing mechanisms, planning processes, and monitoring frameworks.

    4. Integration into Universal Health Coverage (UHC)

    Our work supports the integration of HIV services—particularly for key populations—into national health insurance schemes and UHC packages, securing long-term sustainability and access.

    5. Accountability and Transparency in HIV Spending

    We work with civil society to monitor national HIV budgets, track expenditures, and advocate for greater financial accountability to improve impact and efficiency.

    Approach Across Five Participating Countries

    • Policy Dialogue and Technical Support: Facilitating multi-stakeholder dialogues between ministries of health, finance, civil society, and communities to align priorities and foster political will.
    • Capacity Building: Equipping key population networks with the skills and tools to engage in public budgeting, policy advocacy, and accountability mechanisms.
    • Strategic Partnerships: Collaborating with regional economic communities, donors, and global health institutions to promote co-financing models and policy alignment.
    • Research and Evidence Generation: Supporting national studies and costing analyses to inform strategic investment decisions.

    Why It Matters

    Sustainable public financing is critical to maintain progress and end AIDS by 2030.

    Key populations account for over 60% of new HIV infections in many countries—yet remain the least funded.

    Donor transitions are accelerating, putting essential services at risk.

    Neftaly Create enabling conditions at national and regional levels for facilitating access to HIV care and improving linkages between the main elements of the continuum of HIV care for key populations in five participating countries in the region

    Neftaly Create: Enabling Conditions for Strengthened HIV Care Access and Continuity in the Region

    Overview
    Neftaly Create is committed to transforming the landscape of HIV care across the region by fostering enabling conditions at national and regional levels. Our goal is to ensure equitable, uninterrupted access to HIV services for key populations (KPs) — including sex workers, men who have sex with men, transgender individuals, people who inject drugs, and incarcerated individuals — in five participating countries.

    Objective
    To strengthen the continuum of HIV care by improving systemic access and reinforcing linkages between prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and long-term care for key populations through a coordinated, rights-based, and evidence-informed approach.

    1. Enabling Conditions at the National Level

    Policy and Legal Reform

    • Advocate for decriminalization and reduction of legal and policy barriers that impede access to HIV services for KPs.
    • Support harmonization of national HIV strategies with regional human rights and public health commitments.
    • Engage stakeholders in national policy dialogues to ensure inclusive decision-making processes.

    Health System Strengthening

    • Integrate HIV services within broader universal health coverage (UHC) frameworks.
    • Expand training for healthcare workers on non-discriminatory, gender-sensitive, and KP-centered service delivery.
    • Improve data collection systems to disaggregate data by key population groups to inform evidence-based planning.

    Community Empowerment and Participation

    • Support the development and sustainability of KP-led organizations to participate in planning, monitoring, and service delivery.
    • Promote social protection programs to address structural vulnerabilities such as stigma, poverty, and gender-based violence.

    2. Enabling Conditions at the Regional Level

    Regional Coordination and Knowledge Sharing

    • Foster regional platforms for policy alignment, knowledge exchange, and cross-border collaboration on HIV care for KPs.
    • Encourage best practice sharing through regional learning networks and South-South cooperation.

    Technical Assistance and Capacity Building

    • Provide regional training and technical support to national programs to scale up innovative and proven models for KP-friendly services.
    • Facilitate peer-to-peer learning opportunities among implementing countries to strengthen HIV program quality.

    Regional Monitoring and Accountability Mechanisms

    • Develop and align regional indicators to track progress on KP-focused HIV interventions.
    • Support regional civil society and KP networks to engage in monitoring and advocacy across national borders.

    3. Strengthening Linkages Across the HIV Continuum of Care

    Integrated Service Delivery Models

    • Promote one-stop-shop models offering prevention, testing, treatment, and support services in community and facility settings.
    • Strengthen referral systems and case management approaches to ensure continuity of care from diagnosis through to viral suppression.

    Digital Health and Innovation

    • Utilize digital platforms to support appointment reminders, virtual consultations, and self-testing initiatives.
    • Expand access to telehealth and mobile clinics to reach under-served areas and populations.

    Sustainable Financing and Donor Coordination

    • Encourage national investment in HIV programs targeting KPs through domestic resource mobilization.
    • Coordinate donor efforts to ensure aligned and complementary support for KP-focused services across countries.

    Conclusion

    Through Neftaly Create, we are laying the groundwork for a robust, integrated, and equitable HIV response. By enabling supportive policy environments and strengthening cross-country collaboration, we are building sustainable systems that place key populations at the center of care, improving health outcomes, reducing HIV transmission, and upholding the dignity and rights of all individuals affected by HIV.
