Webinar III: Safeguarding Adolescent Sexual and Reproductive Health in the Current Funding Crisis

On Wednesday, November 12, 2025, the African Population and Health Research Center and its partners hosted the final webinar of their three-part webinar series, which addressed the significant funding cuts affecting global health, particularly adolescent sexual and reproductive health (ASRH), in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Over the past two years, overseas development assistance has drastically reduced, with ASRH initiatives in LMICs being particularly hard hit. This puts decades of progress at risk, as essential services like contraception, maternal care, and HIV treatment are disrupted.

The third webinar aimed to showcase how funding agencies are responding to the crisis, and how they work to include recipient countries in funding decisions. The full recording of the webinar is available here.
