The foreign #aidfreeze has raised questions on if the Trump admin will honor legacy pledges to multilateral orgs, & how they'll approach upcoming replenishments.

#Trump’s decision to freeze most US #aid spending – Washington spent $8bn in aid for sub-Saharan Africa in 2024 – is almost certain to hit the poorest countries hardest and has left #healthcare systems across Africa trying to bridge vast funding gaps

Asking for help on behalf of an Ivorian friend whose NGO has run several projects funded by the US Embassy. Because of the #aidfreeze, he had to stop the projects, cannot pay his staff and is struggling to support his family. Is there any ongoing class action for US aid contractors? bit.ly/4ii2DsM

The recent #AidFreeze from the U.S. isn’t just numbers – it reflects a dangerous global shift trading #humanrights for securitisation and violent hostility. LFJL is committed to justice, but we need your help to continue our work.

💔 This is what the devastating impact of Trump's suspension of foreign aid looks like.

Wah K’ler Paw, a 30-year-old refugee from Mae La camp on the #ThaiBurmaBorder, died on 16 February after not receiving kidney dialysis.

With the #AidFreeze & shifting priorities affecting the development sector, what should a position paper on equitable donor-NGO partnership look like?

Should it call for flexible funding, locally driven priorities, or a shift from compliance to trust-based accountability?

Every day I have a talented friend or colleague reach out for job opportunities due to the #aidfreeze or the #NIH related cuts. These are literally the most talented people I have ever encountered. Not sure what #efficiency means to this government but furloughing US talent does not sound like it.

When we think about the #aidfreeze as a gift to malign actors, it's generally PRC & Russia. At the local level it's even more immediate. Hezbollah is already re-establishing health clinics in Lebanon in place of previous US support. This garners immense goodwill. www.justsecurity.org/107929/us-fo...

🚨The #aidfreeze leaves people in conflict zones deprived of life saving information, it puts the protection of #journalists on hold and gives way to #disinformation.
