June 9, 2009

The U.K.'s Department for International Development announced Friday that it will administer $30 million through 2012 to help Vietnam reduce the spread of HIV/AIDS, Thanh Nien reports. The funds -- which "will be pooled with $33 million from the World Bank to form one joint program" -- "will scale up 'harm-reduction activities' among vulnerable and high-risk groups" and "support implementation of the National Strategy on HIV/AIDS Prevention and Control through improved policy making, capacity building and monitoring activities at national and provincial levels," the newspaper writes (Thanh Nien, 6/9).
