    (HIV/AIDS Monitor, 2007) Oomman, Nandini; Bernstein, Michael; Rosenzweig, Steven; Okedi, William; Cheelo, Caesar; Costa, Dirce; Ssengooba, Freddie; Chitah, Bona; Ekirapa Kiracho, Elizabeth; Mwamba, Sylvia
    Donor funding for HIV/AIDS has reached levels unprecedented in the history of global health: annual funding for AIDS in low- and middle-income countries increased 30-fold from 1996 to 2006, from US$ 300 million to US$ 8.9 billion. While funding remains far short of the estimated need, international donor commitments for HIV/AIDS are significant, and likely to be so, well into the future.1 The resources for AIDS are a topic of considerable interest and debate internationally, yet little is understood about how these resources are actually being spent, and whether they are being made available as efficiently and effectively as possible for the fight against AIDS.
