Despite concerted efforts, progress toward HIV-related health targets remains stagnant, as marginalized communities continue to be disproportionately impacted. This commentary stresses the imperative of providing sustained support for community partnerships to bolster program efficiency and ensure long-term sustainability. By examining examples from both research and program implementation, we delineate the multifaceted roles that affected communities play in shaping health outcomes. Furthermore, this article outlines essential enabling conditions for effective community engagement. A case study illustrating successful community involvement is presented, showcasing the tangible benefits of community-led initiatives. Overall, this commentary provides valuable insights into the pivotal role of community engagement in global health initiatives and advocates for the integration of community perspectives into policy and practice to foster enduring progress and equitable health outcomes worldwide.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/infdis\/jiae586","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,2,19]],"date-time":"2025-02-19T15:20:35Z","timestamp":1739978435000},"page":"S130-S134","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Unpacking the Role, Nature, and Need to Sustain Robust Community Responses in Global Systems"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"232","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8409-765X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Solange L","family":"Baptiste","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Executive Office, International Treatment Preparedness Coalition (ITPC Global) , Johannesburg ,","place":["South Africa"]}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6115-1377","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Elizabeth","family":"Barr","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Office of Research on Women\u2019s Health, National Institutes of Health , Bethesda, Maryland, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Michael J A","family":"Reid","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"President\u2019s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief, Bureau of Global Health Security and Diplomacy, US Department of State, Washington, District of Columbia ,","place":["USA"]},{"name":"Institute for Global Health Sciences, University of California, San Francisco , USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Danielle M","family":"Campbell","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Health Sciences, University of California, San Diego , La Jolla, USA"},{"name":"Preventive and Social Medicine, Charles R.
