The U.S. government is the world leader in responding to the global pandemic of AIDS. Since 1986 the U.S. government, through USAID, has dedicated over $1.4 billion dollars for the prevention and mitigation of this epidemic in the developing world. USAID's HIV/AIDS budget of $200 million for 2000 is four times as great as the next-largest donor.

USAID is working in 46 of the hardest hit countries around the world. Nearly 70 percent of our HIV/AIDS program assistance goes to small non-governmental organizations that have direct connections to the poorest of the poor and those most vulnerable to infection. Over the next five years, USAID will provide education and support services to over 50 million vulnerable persons.

From July 9 -14, the XIII International AIDS Conference will be held in Durban, South Africa. This conference will bring together over 10,000 doctors, scientists and health experts to discuss the growing impact of AIDS.

USAID will be presenting several new studies during the Durban conference. Each day, new information on USAID's findings and programs will be posted on this website.
