Highlighting a recently released UNAIDS and Kaiser Family Foundation report (.pdf) on the financing of the global response to HIV/AIDS in low- and middle-income countries in 2011, Devex assesses the HIV/AIDS initiatives and funding levels of the five leading donor governments for that year. According to the report, the United States, the United Kingdom, France, the Netherlands, and Germany "collectively contributed $6.5 billion, or nearly 86 percent, of all international HIV/AIDS assistance" in 2011, Devex notes before detailing these contributions by country (Piccio, 7/30).
