The International AIDS Society (IAS) developed the Differentiated Care website in collaboration with the World Health Organization (WHO), the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS), United States President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), United States Agency for International Development (USAID), The Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria (GFATM), the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation (BMGF), Médecins Sans Frontierès (MSF), the World Bank, the International Community of Women Living with HIV/AIDS (ICW), and members of several ministries of health. The compendium website contains tools and evidence endorsed for use by national HIV programmes and country implementing partners supported by the agencies engaged in its development.
