On Monday, June 9, 2025, members of the civil society taskforce gathered at the Cortex Center Langage to continue developing an integrated contingency plan addressing the three priority diseases: HIV, malaria, and tuberculosis.
The objective was to finalize the specific plans for each disease in order to build a coordinated, inclusive, and sustainable community response. Among the participants were Impact Santé Afrique, Affirmative Action, Horizon Femmes, RENATA, FESADE, Humanity First Cameroun Plus, CAMFAIDS, NOLFOWOP, RECAJ+, ACT, and Coalition+.
At the end of the discussions — which notably addressed the urgent need to mobilize new funding to sustain high-impact interventions — several key recommendations were made:
- Explore new advocacy approaches
- Finalize the global contingency plan
- Rethink targeting strategies and enhance the value of community-based work
- Identify domestic and alternative funding sources
📆 A follow-up meeting will be scheduled at a later date to incorporate final contributions from CSOs and consolidate the community mitigation plan.
