Regions
Southeast Asia is the pilot region of our project. Southeast Asia, South Asia, East Asia and the Pacific, Eastern and Southern Africa, Western and Central Africa, Latin America and the Caribbean, the Middle East and North Africa, and Eastern Europe and Central Asia now have published region pages. Point at any region to see the countries in the region.
A country tagged AT SOURCE is read at source, which means that our project reads the figures for the country directly from a national publisher, for example the national HIV programme, the health ministry, the national statistics office or, for South Africa, the Thembisa model of the University of Cape Town and, for India, the HIV estimates of the National AIDS Control Organisation (NACO). A country without a tag appears only through international and donor bodies that compile figures across many countries, for example UNAIDS, the WHO, the World Bank, the OECD, the Global Fund and PEPFAR. Indonesia carries the COMMUNITY tag, because our project also reads reports from community-led monitoring of health facilities in Indonesia. Our project also reads reports from community-led monitoring at selected Indian facilities, and India carries the AT SOURCE tag for the NACO estimates.

What our panel holds
Every row records the source of the figure, the URL the figure was read from and the date of retrieval. Where two sources report the same figure, the panel keeps the two rows, and no figure is averaged with another.
Financing
What donors report disbursing, and what countries report spending. The OECD record of United States disbursements and the record the United States government publishes on ForeignAssistance.gov are kept separate, because the two records are compiled independently.
Treatment cascade
Diagnosis, treatment and viral suppression. Modelled coverage estimates sit beside programme counts from national registers, and the panel never merges a modelled estimate with a register count, because a model and a register measure different things.
Epidemic estimates
People living with HIV, new infections, deaths and prevalence. Almost every epidemic estimate in the panel comes from the annual UNAIDS modelling round, whichever body publishes the estimate.
Prevention and outreach
Pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) and key-population outreach. Outreach figures are counts of people reached over a period, summed to a year, and not counts of people at a single date.
Service access
What service users report about stockouts, interruptions, staffing and cost. The reports come from a small number of selected facilities and are not a representative sample.
Population denominators
Total population, used as the denominator for coverage and rates.
How the panel is built
Structured sources only
Figures come from machine-readable feeds and from published tables. Prose is never parsed for numbers, and no language model is used at any step of the data collection. Where a country does not publish in a usable form, the site says so instead of estimating. Reading structured sources only is designed to maximise data accuracy and to avoid data contamination.
Read at source where possible
National programme reporting is the primary record, and the international and donor bodies that compile figures across many countries provide the cross-check. National sources are read directly in 35 countries, namely Thailand, Cambodia and the Philippines in Southeast Asia, Bangladesh, India, the Maldives, Nepal and Sri Lanka in South Asia, China, Mongolia, North Korea, Papua New Guinea, the Solomon Islands and Vanuatu in East Asia and the Pacific, South Africa in Eastern and Southern Africa, Nigeria, Cameroon, Niger, Guinea and Chad in Western and Central Africa, Argentina, Belize, Bolivia, Haiti, Nicaragua, Paraguay and Peru in Latin America and the Caribbean, and Armenia, Belarus, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Montenegro, Tajikistan and Ukraine in Eastern Europe and Central Asia. Our project also reads community-led monitoring reports for Indonesia and India. Every other country appears through international and donor reporting alone, and every country page names the sources used for the country.
Uncertainty is kept
Modelled estimates come with uncertainty intervals, and the panel stores and draws the intervals. Reporting periods that are still open are marked, because plotting a partial year as a complete year would understate the total for the year when only part of the year's funding has been reported.
Latin America and the Caribbean
Eastern Europe and Central Asia
- Read at source. Our project reads the figures for the country directly from a national publisher, for example the national HIV programme, the health ministry or the national statistics office.
- Model at source. Our project reads the estimates for the country directly from the country's official HIV model.
- Community monitoring. No national publisher can be read, and our project adds reports from community-led monitoring of health facilities to the international and donor figures.
- Access to be sought. A national source exists but is closed to the public, so access has to be requested.
- Lead to follow. A national host answers requests, but no usable data source has yet been found on the host.
- Aggregators only. The country appears only through international and donor bodies that compile figures across many countries, for example UNAIDS, the WHO, the World Bank, the OECD, the Global Fund and PEPFAR, including PEPFAR's results by province where PEPFAR works.
- The full assessment of national sources is on the Methods page.
