flag The U.S. is reshaping global health aid with negotiated, multiyear deals focused on reducing waste and advancing American interests.

flag The U.S. State Department has launched a new global health aid strategy centered on multiyear bilateral deals with recipient countries, making aid dependent on negotiations to reduce waste and advance American priorities. flag Led by Secretary Marco Rubio, the approach aligns with President Trump's transactional foreign policy, aiming to give countries more "skin in the game" and incentivize self-reliance. flag Funding will shift toward frontline needs like drugs and diagnostic kits, with program management transitioning to recipient governments. flag The administration will prioritize partners in the Western Hemisphere and Asia-Pacific, continue supporting HIV efforts in Africa, and redirect funds away from nongovernmental organizations deemed to mishandle money. flag New agreements are expected by spring 2026.
