 World abandoning promises on
AIDS<http://www.thestar.com/opinion/editorialopinion/article/1098706--world-abandoning-promises-on-aids>

Written by Richard Elliott (Canadian HIV/AIDS Legal Network) and Nicci
Stein (ICAD), and published on December 7, 2011 in the Toronto Star, this
opinion piece highlights the many significant strides that were made since
AIDS was first identified, and how further progress is in peril, due to
governments reneging on repeated promises to fund the fight against the
pandemic.
