6 amfar, The Foundation for AIDS Research, is dedicated to ending the global AIDS epidemic through innovative research. Since its founding in 1985, amfar has accelerated the pace of HIV/AIDS research and contributed to numerous breakthroughs that are extending and saving lives around the world. amfar identifies critical gaps in our knowledge of HIV/AIDS and supports promising early-stage studies that often lack the preliminary data required by more traditional funders. Through its Research program, amfar is advancing efforts to prevent HIV infection in those who are vulnerable and to improve treatment for people living with HIV/AIDS, with the ultimate goal of eradicating the virus. amfar s TREAT Asia program is a network of clinics, hospitals, and research institutions working with civil society to ensure the safe and effective delivery of HIV/AIDS treatments throughout Asia and the Pacific. TREAT Asia has become a model for regional collaboration on treatment preparedness, education, training, and clinical research. The GMT Initiative (formerly the MSM Initiative) strives to reduce worldwide rates of HIV infection among gay men, other men who have sex with men (MSM), and transgender individuals (collectively GMT) in developing countries by providing small grants to grassroots groups that help expand HIV education and prevention. The GMT Initiative also works to build understanding and awareness of HIV epidemics among GMT, and advocates for effective policies and increased funding. Informed by thorough research and analysis, amfar is a highly respected advocate of rational and compassionate AIDS-related public policy. The Foundation s Public Policy program is engaged in efforts to increase investments in HIV/AIDS research; ensure a robust response to the global epidemic; expand access to prevention, treatment, and care; and protect the civil rights of all people affected by HIV/AIDS. Through its Public Information program, amfar generates awareness of the need for better treatment and prevention methods, and publishes educational materials on important AIDSrelated research, treatment, prevention, and policy issues. As a respected voice on HIV/AIDS, amfar frequently provides media commentary on research developments and other aspects of the epidemic.
