President George W. Bush signed the U.S. President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) into law on May 27, 2003. 21 years later, the program has saved more than 25 million lives and over 5.5 million babies have been born HIV-free.
Hannah Johnson, Program Manager of Global Policy at the George W. Bush Institute, discusses the success of the program and how PEPFAR must adapt moving forward.
