Lenacapavir is a long-acting HIV prevention option given as just two injections a year. It adds to daily PrEP medication, which can be hard to maintain due to stigma, access, or adherence challenges.

A 2025 partnership is helping turn innovation into access across 120 countries

Lenacapavir represents a once-in-a-generation HIV prevention opportunity, if it reaches those who need it most.

Work is underway to ensure these innovations translate into equitable access for populations affected.

Innovation is advancing. Delivery determines impact.

More than 25 years ago, Louis Da Gama received a call about a resurgence in malaria.

Since then, innovation, partnerships and community action have helped save millions of lives. But progress remains fragile—and continued investment in new solutions is essential.

The Government of Kenya recently announced a US$7.8M investment to scale up maternal health products proven to help prevent postpartum hemorrhage.

Building on evidence generated through the AMPLI-PPHI programme, it's an important step towards country-led ownership and scale.

Health innovation alone doesn’t change lives.

For 20 years, we have focused on closing the gap between innovation and access, helping expand 150+ health innovations.

Innovation moves fast—the challenge is turning it into impact at scale for those who need it most.

[Unitaid @UNITAID]

When health innovations are scaled effectively and made accessible, their impact multiplies.

For 20 years, we have worked to close the gap between innovation and access.

150+ innovations. 320M people reached annually. 46:1 return on investment.

Margaret Happy lost her two sisters in the 1990s, when HIV treatment was not available. Today she works in Uganda to prevent advanced HIV disease through timely diagnosis.

@Unitaid, we’re working to protect access to CD4 testing. Timing saves lives.

Health solutions must adapt to a warming world. Heat-stable carbetocin helps prevent severe bleeding after childbirth and remains effective without refrigeration, supporting safer births everywhere.

[Unitaid @UNITAID]

Stigma, fear and shame still prevent many from getting tested or starting HIV treatment early. Through the Unitaid funded THRIVE project, we are supporting community health workers to build trust, expand access to care and ensure no one is left behind.

Health innovation doesn’t automatically reach the people who need it.

We work between development and scale to fix the barriers—pricing, supply insecurity, fragmented demand, and limited manufacturing capacity.

The goal: get innovations to people faster and more affordably.

[Unitaid @UNITAID]

Health systems work best when built around people’s lives, not diseases. In maternal health, integrated care means one visit can provide antenatal care, immunization, education, delivery & newborn care.

Lenacapavir could reshape HIV prevention, but only if it reaches those who need it most.

In an op-ed featured in @The Independent, Philippe Duneton @Unitaid and Anne Aslett @ejaf explore what it will take to turn innovation into equitable access.

Innovation is not only about new products. It’s also about making existing tools and treatments simpler, more affordable and easier to access.

Over 20 years, partnerships have helped expand lifesaving care — because behind every innovation is a person who needs it.

[Unitaid @UNITAID]

At #WHA79, global health leaders face mounting pressure: financing gaps, fragile supply chains and unequal access.

One lesson from 20 years of experience is clear: innovation alone is not enough. It must be matched with action to deliver access at scale.

Maternal outcomes should not depend on geography or income.

Access to preeclampsia care remains unequal, despite being preventable and treatable.

Koiwah Koi-Larbi @apec_gh shares her experience of systemic gaps in care.
