Background
Cambodia's response to HIV/AIDS over the past two decades has been a remarkable story. The country has achieved impressive results, exceeding some of the global targets set for 2023 (86% diagnosed, 99% on treatment, 98% virally suppressed, compared to the 90-90-90 targets). This success is largely due to strong partnerships with civil society organizations and international partners. Together, they built an evidence-based program focused on people's needs, which has significantly reduced new infections and increased access to anti-retroviral therapy for those living with HIV.
However, a critical challenge loom. Cambodia's HIV response has relied heavily on external funding, which is decreasing. This raises concerns about the program's long-term sustainability.
The Cambodian government acknowledges this issue. In line with the 2018 Sustainability Roadmap critical steps were taken to secure the program's achievements. One key policy called SCN 213 directives of the Council of Ministers which has been passed in 2019 encourages government ministries to support civil society organizations (CSOs) working on HIV/AIDS.
