  • Redefining Global Health in the 21st Century, Chpt 4: Financing Global Health in an Era of Scarcity

    Redefining Global Health in the 21st Century, Chpt 4: Financing Global Health in an Era of Scarcity
    2026/08/05
    In this episode of Redefining Global Health in the 21st Century, Ben chats with authors mike Reid and Eric Goosby about how funding shocks become life-and-death realities, starting with a case from Zambia after the January 2025 U.S. pause and cuts to PEPFAR that left many without antiretrovirals and destabilized HIV services in a system heavily dependent on U.S. support. They describe behind-the-scenes efforts to warn political leaders, on-the-ground resilience and improvisation, and the emotional toll of what they view as an abandonment of dialogue. The discussion explores whether donor dependency was a design choice, the roles donors should play (equity gaps, global public goods, and underwriting transitions), and options such as co-investment requirements, government-to-government funding, debt-to-health swaps, public financial management support, domestic resource mobilization (including sin taxes), and potential roles for development finance and sovereign wealth funds, while stressing the need to define a clear destination for health financing and country ownership. 00:00 Welcome and Book Intro 00:29 Zambia Funding Shock 02:26 Why Zambia Matters 05:58 Scrambling After PEPFAR Pause 07:58 Resilience and System Fragility 09:58 Eric Goosby Reaction 15:37 Dependency by Design 18:44 Colonial Debt Reality 22:25 What Solidarity Looks Like 26:10 Donor Funding Roles 30:21 Accountability and Oversight 32:50 Co Investment and Direct Funding 35:37 Debt Relief as Co Investment 36:46 Debt for Health Swaps 37:46 Modernizing Gavi and Global Fund 41:26 Local Accountability and Trust 45:26 Post Aid Era Roadmap 48:19 Building Country Ownership 53:46 Sovereign Wealth Fund Ideas 58:04 New Finance Tools and Taxes 01:00:04 Defining the Destination 01:04:03 Call to Action and Thanks Learn more about the book: https://bit.ly/redefining-global-health More from UCSF Institute for Global Health Sciences: https://globalhealthsciences.ucsf.edu Check Out mike Reid’s Substack: https://substack.com/@reimaginingglobalhealth Check Out Ben’s Substack: https://substack.com/@benplumley1 Join the Conversation!

  • Wrapping our Conversations with Youth Leadership at AIDS 2026

    Wrapping our Conversations with Youth Leadership at AIDS 2026
    2026/08/01
    This episode was made in partnership with the International AIDS Society (IAS), Young Leaders Programme. ---- Host Ben Plumley wraps up the A Shot in the Arm Podcast from AIDS 2026 in Rio de Janeiro with Zarawu Adams, a medical scientist from Salama Clinic in Accra, Ghana, reflecting on an exhausting but valuable week balancing conference sessions with the IAS’ Young Leaders Programme. Adams highlights research linking antiretroviral treatment to metabolic crises such as type 2 diabetes, including work focused on pregnant women, and confirms through conversations with scientific leaders that this issue is still under-emphasized. She describes the Young Leaders program as a diverse international advocacy network across HIV and other infectious diseases that builds connections, fills gaps, and broadens engagement beyond science to policy, innovation, and activism. Adams emphasizes resilience, the funding crisis, and the urgent need to tackle stigma and discrimination – particularly as a driver of suicide, while noting increased visibility for LGBT communities within the IAS space. 00:00 Welcome to Rio 00:53 Metabolic Risks Spotlight 03:15 Young Leaders Program 04:53 Networking and Advice 07:26 Stigma and Discrimination 08:32 Activism and Funding Crisis 10:36 Resilience and New Ideas 14:27 Priority on Stigma 15:41 LGBTQ and Closing Reflections 17:54 Final Thanks and Sign Off Guests: Zarawu Adams Medical Scientist, Salama Clinic, Accra, Ghana AIDS 2026 https://www.iasociety.org/conferences/aids2026 Check Out Ben’s Substack: https://substack.com/@benplumley1 Join the Conversation!

    Shuga Global discusses Creating HIV Prevention Media with Youth at AIDS 2026
    2026/08/01
    At AIDS 2026 in Rio de Janeiro, host Ben Plumley speaks with Wame Jallow, Jerop Limo, and JulieBrenda Waweru about Shuga Global’s evolution from the MTV Staying Alive Foundation and why entertainment-education remains relevant for HIV prevention and youth health. They discuss how Shuga’s storytelling reflects young people’s lived realities, helps break taboos, builds agency, and connects audiences to services through a broader ecosystem that includes peer education, screenings, and chatbots. The guests describe how Gen Z’s autonomy, digital media habits, and demand for solutions require new ways of communicating health, while addressing backlash, misinformation, and harmful online influences. They also share reflections from the conference on shifting resources, community leadership, new prevention and treatment options, and the need to fund and empower youth-led solutions through stronger government and civil society collaboration. 00:00 Welcome and Guests 01:14 What Is Shuga Now 01:22 From MTV to Global Movement 02:38 Proof Entertainment Works 04:54 Why Shuga Still Matters 07:28 Fan Stories and Impact 09:16 Gen Z Needs New Approach 14:23 Solutions Not Lectures 16:14 Youth Activism and Health Demands 17:45 Media Shift And Backlash 18:32 Short Clips For Health 19:02 Shuga As Holistic Support 21:18 Competing With Misinformation 22:45 Trust And Community Dialogue 24:43 Conference Takeaways 26:34 Science And Choice Agenda 27:30 Youth Power And Funding 30:56 Partnership With Government 32:21 Watch Shuga And Wrap Up Guests Wame Jallow Executive Director, Shuga Global Jerop Limo Executive Director, Ambassador For Youth and Adolescent Reproductive Health Program (AYARHEP) JulieBrenda Waweru Actress, Shuga Mashariki , Shuga Global Shuga Global https://shuga.global AIDS 2026 https://www.iasociety.org/conferences/aids2026 Check Out Ben’s Substack: https://substack.com/@benplumley1 Join the Conversation!
