In September 2025, the United States of America published a new global health strategy entitled America First Global Health Strategy, marking a major shift in its international positioning on global health.
This global health insight aims to:

- Recall the main elements of the U.S. strategy of September 2025 in order to provide a shared analytical framework;
- Shed light on the current situation regarding the signing of bilateral agreements with partner countries, based on the information available in the Memoranda of Understanding (MoUs), and identify the main areas of uncertainty;
- Highlight the strategic issues raised by this evolution and examine its implications for France and for civil society actors.
In addition, our policy brief addressed to French and European decision-makers is also available here.
