Devex examines reaction of international development community to U.S. AIDS blueprint

Dec 6 2012

Devex's "Pennsylvania Ave." blog reports on reaction from the international development community to the release last week of the "President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) Blueprint: Creating an AIDS-free Generation" (.pdf). "In general, aid groups welcomed the release of the blueprint and urged other donors to follow the United States' lead," the news service writes, adding, "There are, however, some groups that were disappointed with the lack of concrete funding commitments, among other details." Devex provides reaction from DAI, Management Sciences for Health, and World Vision and quotes representatives of Save the Children, Abt Associates, and UNAIDS (Mungcal/Valdez, 12/4).
