the mapped out shows the geopolitical reality beyond the board. what makes things to the way they are mapped out, navigating a changing world. now on youtube, the business dw news off coming up on the program a live saving drugs that come only save the lives of those who kind of forward it on h i v. prevention and dr. glenn, a couple of you will cost a fortune to hear from the executive director of your needs, who's calling for action to make it more affordable. also, i had a growing crack down on the defense in uganda. us rights groups that use president will save any of silence and the position. critics call it a troubling escalation of repression. any stop and how a new cultural sense uh, in the city of lagos, beings to shake off to new z, m wells and v shape. how african stories i told

the i am at the michael junior, and you are welcome to the program. the u. n. agency leading the wealth response to h. i. v and aids as making on the edge of the call to action, u. n. h. once the groundbreaking, h i v prevention rack to be made available to everyone who needs it. the drug then a copy of their requires just to injections. yeah. and how showing remarkable success in trials of that's a problem. it time, fee cost each patients more than $40000.00 pay. yeah, that's far too expensive for most well here. shortly from this active direct toll view and needs, especially as i look at this bridge through in global health it's been hailed as a game changer for h i v. prevention. then a cup of year was approved in 2022 as a treatment for people with

h. i. v. research and early trials found it to be over 95 percent effective in preventing infection. putting it in the class of what's known as pre exposure, prophylaxis or prep medication. other approved prep drugs are pills that have to be taken every day. but within that cap of year, just one injection remains effective for 6 months. a major advantage of that. with the twice yearly injectable, we're seeing, we know that the participants will be quite excited about as i'm just purely because the injectable versus the poll with seeing how adherence is, is not always the greatest when it comes to the pills pending because of different reasons. time um, the ability to go in and paste on specialists pills from the, from the tenants in a cup of year as an anti viral molecule. it works by interfering with the protein capsule that surrounds h i. these genetic code, making it unable to replicate and cells the scientific breakthrough came from

us based pharmaceutical company, gillian sciences, the firm controls the drugs production, owns the patent, and has a monopoly on its sale. so organizations like you and aids are urging delia to make it more widely available and affordable. currently in countries where it's approved as an h, i v treatment courses of atlanta, a couple of year costs over $40000.00 per patient per year. let's get mall from, we need the email you in on the secretary general and the executive director at u. n. h c joins us from the well the comic firm at davos. hello my them welcome to the program. how does it make you feel that a new h i v prevention drag is so expensive that many people that need it cannot afford it a one to one hand excited because this is ground breaking this new technology of need fiction once every 6 months to prevent

h i v infection is truly wrong breaking, just like when we 1st bought the k. r of these were the treatment. but yes, also worried about having some sleepless nights and working round the clock to make sure that this magical technology highly fixed, you've finds this way around stigma, discrimination because it's hidden once in 6 months you have what you need and you won't go with if we don't move fast and get it to everyone who needs it. then we could have what happened in 2000 when air of these, with hardly being distributed in rich countries. and africa, was waiting for 10 yards. and we lost $12000000.00 people waiting for the prices to come down. we don't one value. so i'm yeah,

in the was to talk to the business company. the ad, asking them to do the right thing to move fast is to license many companies in the developing countries low on middle income countries to make sure that fits reduction these to a level a scale where the price comes down to dave. in the rich countries with the selling meat that comerica this treats with this prevention treatment plus $40000.00 slightly above, but pass them by year. we know there's a fee where to increase in the production and by licensing more companies to do generics. it could come down to about $4040.00 per person by nea. and that means, or countries through the ford for the right. so right,

i'm here to bring them to do the right thing for lives before profits. right, right. which is, which is a good thing that you're trying to do. but as you said, you are adaptable as you've been speaking to the people that my top the companies weld meet as a, not a big k as. so what response are you getting from them? what exactly are they saying to you? then what's the phone with her and pushing and gotten engaging with we good yard. we had the most of this loop because they have no nicest 6 companies. 3 in india. only one enough because a north south africa where we have the highest number of people living with h i v. i use number of newly fictions, 150000 last year and where we have the strongest capacity for from a single production, no less. they use public money to develop the products, they use the research that governments investing in their university place. then

they goals, and they try their products. found people even developing countries in africa. they tested on south africa, goes and we may need uganda in many countries. countries are now not even included in gauging the medicines, so be able to help you to get a product. and when you get it becomes bustle to you and you don't need to the people's to help to make it. this is wrong, so there's a pool. so that, that's where we are, the, the us pushing the company and i believe the pressure loves. so we're going to continue engaging off the the i tested has made a deal now with the tool know with global font and pitfall to produce to nearly all of these vis injectables for

the see a bunch of us as you and needs know, that's if we i would be on the cost ending this disease. we need to produce and emilio and write all the different really, to a day needs to be done. we are pushing them to last. the small companies on know fossil reduced genetics. but beyond license and what about practical steps? i needed to bring the price down to you know, web globally accessible level. you ask a good question, tony. we need to bring the price down. no, and full that we need to push for a more company specializes. but also we need to get the company is to partner and collaborate to produce better and better made decisions. for example, we know that this was every 6 months becomes once

a year injection. and that is so important, especially for people who are hiding from stigma and for criminal laws that use them for what they are. the women are more a tree. so it goes almost every time the new infections or, but the less sense or 6 of those, those goals need to have that to injection, to presenting fixture. we also need to get the rich countries. that's 14 the money to help countries to fight the disease, to put to new doing that. for example, money for, for the disease full of countries comes mainly for an american program for web folks and from the global fund, which has many don't countries including america get that those contribute to this must stay. you cannot believe you cannot reach phone to abundantly the hills

system where you are investing the building, right? it's capacity. so right, we need this to my as well. the nations is, and we need is that of countries to have this space to invest in the own health system, the fiscal space, that is also about no reforming the international finance or architecture gentry tacit in data. we struck settings that did sold that visa for good countries. what today, paying 7 times mold in did sub is know $5.00 times more and did servicing then the investing in hills, but no money to put even hills right. there are many levels here of things to do, including supporting applicant countries, to access fine us an tax and be able to pay for the people, right. i thought it was maybe an e mail as i could have direct of you on a scale him off on how shortly on a separate topic fields are

growing and you've gone down with an escalating crackdown on this end in just the past few months. so position the keys are busy, jay has been charged with treason. his lawyer was imprisoned and several active is talking arrested for criticizing the government online. w correspondents. judy as well. gumble has more from compound what critics are calling a dangerous new face of repression. i rested for speaking her mind in the 1st week of this year. police detain, gemini, is an activist at this uh at to higher rate. that obviously those express themselves because of what does happen is it looks right and i am sure you 40. so that's a little that you can do it right sheet and sit in this, we're protesting this thing can single human rights lawyer, but in military quote, she was charged with being a public knew since you're going to use the meanest debt towards dw,

the charges with justified who have the right to the most for it was the wrong on the seek for permission to demonstrate because we don't want public and uses also the public doesn't want to be the other for doing the business to a higher it was released on bail after a few hours, but we'll have to face the charges later. she's used as tending up to authorities activities in unplugged the international women of coverage of what from the us state department. it is full of intended to in this country, disregard for the root of little but the extent it gets every day. it's really a said state of, of events. it said dentist trend it moves from bed to west. the presidential with him was 70, has been in power for such and 9 years international. going to have visions,

like i missed the international and human rights watch, accusing me of intensifying repression and abusing is authority to silence critics . the recent august of long time, political arrival docutech, he's obviously j and he's try you by military quote. despite being a civilian, drew criticism from rights bodies, and legal experts. we're right, quick decisions that have ruined info, disobedient, saying you cannot try civilians and meet the quotes. the only thing that would be judiciary must do is to prioritize human rights. this is all showing the dealership because they touch them because lice was somebody will and seem to be another. the say's speaking though to against i'm assuming it comes up to have a price. now we have so many people that have been sent to do because they said something when 6 to accept the president are. and he's how many don't like so many we have,

we actually do not knew this edition here at tech where we have cases of about 6 of them. one was sent to 60 as images us minister by them. but the heidi denies allegations of suppressing for speech, but sees wild claims against the president often made only like a recent one things at the present month. that the m p. window to acceptable. your rates have the limits. you're going to say your rate when you i, i choosing somebody to my desk. somebody was never do this. i'm wondering like i'm send for for what for? fuck i was to day i choosing them was a and the government of getting say, getting someone was had, i enjoyed it with this is i want to one young people that didn't you benefit? nothing up using someone. was there done nothing to as you've been seen, nothing abusing expedia and to run up to the less general elections? minimal position supports us with arrested more than 50 people,

including which i will report to cute when a government credit down in compiler, in november 2020, good out of control. some, some of these received government compensation a tight a fee as more risk and violence in the coming year as the 2026 election looms and all indications produced was 70 would run again. we need young email, who we have from alia, is also the wife of kids at bescedy. the abducted veteran know position for got in uganda. she said, have concerns about the treason charges i has one faces in the military court. its, i'm, of course, you shouldn't, but to use the deciding court to try us the, the end. but the government is the tonnage to break o constitution. and of that that may be said the port. you

have the same people of the blocks to the v was a ducted from kenya and brought to dumped in a bit of tight g. the same people of duck going on. now also he's accuse us and they're also his judge, the president, a son who is the chief of the defense forces, has been up there tweeting that she wants to skim hung by the 9th of may. yes, you've been chosen the venue for hunting him, and he's the head of this military court. it's reports to here. so with task for him was in be hard. right across the board i in kenya, there's a growing trend of what rights groups are calling transnational repression. in july, last year, a group of that is 6, a gun middle position members were seized in kenya, and forcibly retired to uganda for a tire his trial. and up to about 4, take his refugee's web doctor, didn't i, robi, and sent back the taxi. and that was case our messages are rest in november and

this month, the terms on the engine list and back to visit southern gates, the high will cease to nairobi where she'd moved 4 years ago after fleeing home country. to high believes the canyons were working with a 1000 young governments and how to plan to send her back based on the fact that they really wanted access to my phone. i have a feeling that some of the things that i report on is now giving them sleepless nights. so that was one of the reasons they wanted. that was a point in time when i was convinced that i was about to be taken across. and i knew the minute i cost, if you would never hear from me again, i'll become another post. so i would never stop, never, ever stop. and if this was done with a to intimidate me, to really harm me, that was never stopped me. i will continue continuously to speak out. i spoke to rolanda ability, amnesty international, the stock for car besides

a. he told me more about this pots and the steed let abductions and iris in the region or that and these, that the process of being protected, especially the cross border objections, passing out very critical of governments in their country. however, in case that we have a series of objections, but now how included leaders in the much unknown gen, the process that took place pregnant and other government offices last year. right . and that's a problem and it cannot be accepted as the norm. so what specific steps should east african governments take to address these human rights concerns? about the right to expression, have the freedoms underwriter, to free expression, different the ones that right to, you know, people left them to the association. right? that are guaranteed under the qualifications of i've been frequenting,

and you've got tons on you and kingdom and uh, for this deeds to really avoid the situation where by, you know, it'll pass on criticizing, or people, you know, seem to upgrade to save this take to then they really need to be comfortable, then trust the private. and so when the defense come and wants to pre decides paid for misgivings or, you know, so i can uh, you know, comfortable or comfortably decreased or they could incorruption including, you know, the human rights violations. then this teachers, phones by, you know, be, tried you ever abductions and other forms of it for disappearing. that's what gives you the national center because against the constitution of this country, how right out the phone for the people. but it is the same governments that are being accused of states abductions. so how can be the expect that to tackle the problem? what more needs to be done to make sure that the really addressing this when the to

be blamed? at least that's the way some people say, as it is more than that because all these dates of goods independent institutions and cannot be the independent police seem oversight. authority of these countries have human rights commission that you've done the human rights commission, the terms then you have commission on human rights and would govern those. uh, can you of the containment rights at the national commission on human rights at these a natural human rights institutions? that's fair to really as people in the rise. oh, i'd be a citizen. so that when a security forces, and i thought, well, 3 keys of this page, you know, go be, you want, you know, there monday or, you know, actin excesses then the regulation should be by these institutions. also we have, uh, you know, politicians, we have a, the does of this country that should, that should come out and put and then whatever it is that keeps happening. apaloosa,

and that's uh, you know, we have been calling they, me to push to and z like in kind of the president, william has accepted that abduction indeed the happening around i see that he's going to talk to some directions. you cannot stop what you have not to be good. so again, we are calling one government to bring an end to objections else that we left for the board that on international tribes. and you know, some of these cases can be presented to codes of the ones you know, these countries right. wrote on, heavily from amnesty international. thank you. thank you very much. so happy with the city of lagos, the night jerry has welcomed a new and vicious cultural project. the john rondo center brings you by heritage to life in ways that attempts to challenge traditional museum conventions of use of flourish. bonnie explorers:

how this landmark ames to redefine how african culture is presented. and for that as outside the new during the run do same time for you go to an history is bold and intriguing. see on usual architecture and colors, the flex, the vibrant energy of the your back hold. you. stepping in. it takes you into a whole new world. starting with this installation. the story of creation according to use. i'm for let you. this is a to many. i've heard of what here comes a life aside from displaying history critics. the same tie uses modern audio visual media to give an immersive experience. this multi media is felicia and teaches, visits was about different mice group in your by culture masquerades as he goes

that connects the leaving and the spiritual world. they are often displayed during festivals or rituals, accompanied by lots of music. i'm dancing. this masquerade is called a this is one of the features that people really like as because see the screen is responsive. the image on the screen basically move on response to every move i make. i'm supposed to do does seem to come to. so i think it's one this museum is the assess of each kind in west africa using advise technology to document the story of a major indigenous tribe for me to all the doing to the present city. everything here is intentionally designed to not only teach people about history, but some make them feel history. so the life me was very,

very new to like was up there. we saw this so like is that's who of the crown re, so be. so it gave a sense you vice aspects of your culture from politics to business, fashion, and religion on display here. liberals, i also retain both in english. i mean, the may see you are by language for the creators of the center. it's a child's to tell an original story that reminds africans of your indigenous culture. and heritage, tempest likely will become like a kind of a account, a narrative, where people can say, you know, we actually have people, we have history. we have stories, way before coming out is where before office and contact with any european. so for me, she was life sentence like this created that's avenue where you can step to do almost like an archaeological work to remember is

a space for remembering 3 in the center. the set top see me lead to a museum with direct to only kick, who says, referring to each as a heavy to extent. that instead is a way to shift for colonial mindset associated with museums. that's something that comes across strongly to people visiting. we are taking charge of the narrative like never before. so this is absolutely different from what i've seen in the u. k . what i've seen in italy because it's finally the turn of africa being told by africans. and to me that is absolutely magical. the center was created for the joint efforts between you, by historians, architects offices and the legal states. governments. yeah, hoping it will spy it over to setup simula heritage centers across the continent. i know about you,

but i am already inspired. that's it for now. the ssl to check out of us stories on we'll see you next time i for now the
