[edit] PEPFAR

The President's Emergency Plan For AIDS Relief (PEPFAR/Emergency Plan) is a commitment of $15 billion over five years (2003–2008) from [[President of the United States|United States President George W. Bush to fight the global HIV/AIDS pandemic. As the largest international health initiative ever initiated by one nation to address a single disease, the program hopes to provide antiretroviral treatment (ART) to 2 million HIV-infected people in resource-limited settings, to prevent 7 million new infections, and to support care for 10 million people (the "2-7-10 goals").

The U.S. Leadership Against HIV/AIDS, Tuberculosis, and Malaria Act of 2003 (or the Global AIDS Act) established the State Department Office of the Global AIDS Coordinator to oversee all international AIDS funding and programming. Ambassador Mark R. Dybul has been the U.S. Global AIDS Coordinator since July 2006.

As of March 2007, the program estimates that it has supported the provision of ART to approximately 1,101,000 people. See the official PEPFAR website [1], the Five Year Strategy Fact Sheet, the Funding Fact Sheet,and Funding Information for FY2006. NB that critics have questioned the accuracy of PEPFAR reporting.
