COMPASS directs collective advocacy towards five interconnected challenges that prevent health systems from delivering equitable and sustainable outcomes.
Bringing communities, civil society and partners together to influence policy, financing, services and accountability.
Restrictive, outdated or poorly implemented policies continue to exclude communities from quality HIV and health services.
Chronic underinvestment, dependence on external financing and health-worker shortages threaten service continuity, equity and country ownership.
Health services remain insufficiently integrated and responsive, while effective prevention choices and differentiated delivery models do not reach everyone who needs them.
Communities are too often consulted after priorities have been set, with limited power to shape decisions, monitor implementation and hold institutions accountable.
Financing transitions, pandemics, emergencies and other shocks can disrupt essential services and reverse hard-won HIV and health gains.
