A report by Accra Reset warns that healthcare systems across Africa and the Global South are facing significant pressure following the withdrawal of key aid programs by the United States. The report identifies the cessation of these USAID initiatives as a primary driver of the current strain on regional medical infrastructure and service delivery.

In response to these developments, the report advocates for a shift in strategy, urging nations within the region and the broader Global South to assume greater autonomy over their own health development. This call for increased self-reliance is presented as a necessary adjustment to mitigate the impact of the recent funding changes.
