Information on annual investment levels are collected from the national/federal departments and multilateral organizations identified who provide funding for preventive HIV vaccine and microbicide research and development. Information is collected on funds disbursed each year on a range of activities including: vaccine related basic science; pre-clinical research; clinical trials; support for clinical trial preparation; and advocacy and policy efforts directed at accelerating the development of these technologies and their eventual use. The estimates, however, do not include:
• Research and development expenditures/investments for vaccines with primarily therapeutic applications;
• Research not directed primarily at preventive HIV vaccines and/or microbicides but that may have benefi ts or links to either of these products (e.g., platform technologies).
