A statement from LSHTM’s Executive Team on the threats to global health programmes and research
London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine (LSHTM) "Over the last month we have seen political changes in the USA shake the foundations of societies, economies and institutions around the world. Science itself is under siege - eroded by misinformation, shrinking funding, and unprecedented cuts to international development budgets. These changes, including a shift in priorities away from health, equity, and sustainable development, are already having profound impacts on science and health both in the USA and globally. At the same time the UK has massively reduced its own overseas development assistance."
