ABSTRACT A report released by the grassroots advocacy organization ONE contains information on donor commitments to the Global Fund.

A report on global commitments to AIDS has been released by ONE, a grassroots advocacy and organisation that fights extreme poverty and preventable disease, particularly in Africa. Bono was one of the co-founders of ONE.

The report, entitled “The Beginning of the End? Tracking Global Commitments on AIDS,” includes information on bilateral and multilateral commitments for AIDS for each of major donors countries (one of the “counties” is the European Union). The report also provides information on these countries’ commitments to the Global Fund. For each country, the report contains a chart comparing pledges and contributions to the Fund for the period 2002–2013.

The report also contains a table showing all donor contributions to the Global Fund for the period 2009­–2011.

Note: Aidspan plans to release an update on pledges and contributions to the Global Fund shortly.
