Eastern Europe and Central Asia

17 countries, 33,948 observations from 36 sources, covering 2000 to 2026. A country is read at source when our project takes the figures for the country directly from a national publisher, for example the national HIV programme, the health ministry, the national statistics office or an official national HIV model. A country marked Aggregators only 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. Armenia, Belarus, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Montenegro, Tajikistan and Ukraine are read at source, through national statistics offices, public health bodies and national HIV centres. Albania, Azerbaijan, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Moldova, North Macedonia, Serbia, Türkiye, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan appear only through international and donor reporting, including the joint HIV surveillance report of the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) and the WHO Regional Office for Europe, and the WHO Europe Health for All database. PEPFAR's results by province reach Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Ukraine. Every country page lists the sources of the figures shown.

23 rows, as drawn above. Values are rounded for display, and the download gives the unrounded values.

Disbursements reported to the OECD by all donors, by the United States alone, and by the Global Fund, summed across the 17 countries of Eastern Europe and Central Asia. A year is drawn only when the number of countries reporting reaches 70 per cent of the highest number of countries reporting in any single year, because a total built from a few countries is low for reasons unrelated to the level of funding. For all donors combined, all 17 countries report in at least one year, and every year from 2002 to 2024 meets the minimum of 12 countries. For the United States, at most 12 of the 17 countries report in any single year, so the minimum is nine countries, and 2003, 2004, 2011, 2013 and 2015 to 2024 fall below the minimum and are excluded. The line for the United States therefore has a gap at 2011 and 2013. For the Global Fund, at most 16 of the 17 countries report in any single year, so the minimum is 12 countries, and 2003, 2004, 2009 and 2016 to 2019 fall below the minimum and are excluded. The line for the Global Fund therefore has a gap at 2009 and 2016 to 2019. The total of United States disbursements excludes Bosnia and Herzegovina and Montenegro, for which the OECD publishes no figure. The total of Global Fund disbursements excludes Turkmenistan, for which the OECD publishes no figure.

The two lines record the same United States HIV disbursements to Eastern Europe and Central Asia, once as the United States reports the disbursements to the OECD and once as the United States government publishes the disbursements on ForeignAssistance.gov. The two records are compiled independently, so a difference between the two lines is informative and does not come from republication of the same figures. The self-reported record is filed by United States fiscal year, which runs from October to September, and the OECD record is filed by calendar year. The OECD record ends in 2014 and the self-reported record ends in 2017. A year is kept in the OECD record or in the self-reported record only when the number of countries reporting reaches 70 per cent of the highest number of countries reporting in any single year. For the OECD record, at most 12 of the 17 countries report in any single year, so the minimum is nine countries, and 2003, 2004, 2011, 2013 and 2015 to 2024 fall below the minimum and are excluded. The line for the OECD record therefore has a gap at 2011 and 2013. For the self-reported record, at most 11 of the 17 countries report in any single year, so the minimum is eight countries, and 2016 and 2018 to 2026 fall below the minimum and are excluded. The line for the self-reported record therefore has a gap at 2016.

Modelled estimates, summed across the countries of Eastern Europe and Central Asia. The gap between the two lines is the number of people living with HIV who are not on antiretroviral treatment, which is the figure most exposed to a change in external financing. The total of people living with HIV excludes Bosnia and Herzegovina, Turkmenistan, Türkiye, Ukraine and Uzbekistan, for which UNAIDS publishes no figure. The total of people on antiretroviral treatment excludes Bosnia and Herzegovina, Belarus, Turkmenistan, Türkiye, Ukraine and Uzbekistan, for which UNAIDS publishes no figure.

Bilateral agreements

America First Global Health Strategy

The United States government is replacing the earlier arrangements for United States global health assistance with country-by-country agreements. One agreement has been signed with countries in Eastern Europe and Central Asia so far, out of 36 worldwide. Terms are recorded as published, and a figure an agreement does not state is marked as not stated.

CountrySignedTotalUS share Country co-investment Programme areasCovers HIV
Tajikistan 2026-04-06 $78.0m $38.0m $40.0m HIV/AIDS; TB; GHS Yes

The terms of the agreements come from the tracker of America First bilateral global health agreements kept by KFF, an American health-policy research organisation, and were retrieved on 29 October 2026. KFF assigns the programme areas by searching the press releases and agreement texts for keywords, so an agreement may cover more areas than the table lists. In the programme areas, TB is tuberculosis, MCH is maternal and child health and GHS is global health security.

What the Eastern Europe and Central Asia page does not yet show

Kazakhstan is read at source only for HIV prevalence among people who inject drugs. The national sources give sub-national figures for the six regions and Minsk city of Belarus, for 22 oblasts and Kyiv city of Ukraine for 2017 to 2021, and for the five regions of Tajikistan, and the Ukrainian counts cover the territory under the control of the Government of Ukraine. PEPFAR's results by province for Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Ukraine count only the sites PEPFAR supports. Azerbaijan's statistics committee counts citizens only, Moldova's statistics bureau excludes the left bank of the Nistru and Bender, the reports of the public health institutes of Bosnia and Herzegovina count to 1 December and not the full year, and Serbia's statistics portal republishes the UNAIDS estimate. North Macedonia's statistics office holds no HIV indicator, Albania's 2025 count covers part of the year, Türkiye's statistics institute refused access to the data service, Turkmenistan's statistics committee has no health table, and Uzbekistan's statistics portal gives an HIV rate with no stated method. The country-by-country position is set out in Methods.
