Abstract
Over the last 20 years, the U.S. President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) has rapidly expanded and made remarkable progress toward the UNAIDS 95-95-95 targets to end the HIV epidemic. Nevertheless, HIV continues to pose a significant health challenge globally, with a particular impact on the African continent. Funded by PEPFAR, the African Cohort Study (AFRICOS) has served as a monitoring and evaluation tool for PEPFAR to help guide HIV policy and PEPFAR programming for the last 10 years since its inception and offers a compelling example of how PEPFAR's investment in science continues to reap dividends. This paper details and critically reviews the transformative research AFRICOS has had on helping to end the HIV epidemic as a public health threat by 2030.
