Financing the Response to AIDS in Low-and Middle-Income Countries: International Assistance from the G8, European Commission and Other Donor Governments in 2009 - Chartpack Financing the Response to AIDS in Low- and Middle- Income Countries: International Assistance from the G8, European Commission and Other Donor Governments in 2009 Authors: Jennifer Kates (Kaiser Family Foundation), Kim Boortz (. [...] provided 27% of the funding available for AIDS from all sources (donor governments, multilaterals, the private sector, and domestic sources), the largest share of any donor and just below its share of the world’s economy as measured by gross domestic product or GDP (25% in 2009). [...] When standardized by GDP per US$1 million, to account for differences in the sizes of government economies, Denmark provided the highest amount of resources for AIDS in 2009, followed by the Netherlands, Sweden, the United Kingdom, and Ireland (see Chart 11). [...] The research team solicited bilateral assistance data directly, using uniform protocols, from the governments of Australia, Canada, Denmark, France, Germany, Ireland, Japan, The Netherlands, Norway, Spain, Sweden, The United Kingdom, The United States, and The European Commission during the first half of 2010, representing the fiscal year 2009 period. [...] Although the Russian Federation is a Member of the G8 and made significant contributions to the Global Fund in 2009, it was a net recipient of AIDS assistance, and therefore is not included in the donor analysis.
