International funding remains the highest contributor to the HIV\/AIDS response in Africa. This threatens the sustainability of HIV programmes, particularly with increasing pressures on international budgets. This is already being witnessed with decreased donor funding for Malaria, HIV\/AIDS and TB in recent years. To sustain the current progress, domestic financing and leadership are critical.<\/p>\n

\n
Researchers from APIN Public Health Initiatives in Nigeria conducted a study comparing the funding sources for HIV between South Africa and Nigeria, which have the two largest economies in Africa. The significant contribution of domestic funding to the total HIV expenditure in South Africa demonstrates a high level of local ownership that better positions South Africa for sustainability.<\/div>\n
\n

Studies from Nigeria, South Africa, Nigeria, Uganda and Tanzania show that governments are now thinking about and establishing alternative financing mechanisms to support HIV programmes. However, more African countries still need to reinforce policies and strategies to increase domestic funding of their HIV programmes.<\/p>\n
