Investments to fight extreme poverty and preventable disease in Africa have been delivering significant results in recent years. In 2002, only 50,000 people in Africa with HIV had access to life-saving AIDS medication, less than 1 percent of those in need. Today, thanks to targeted aid and African leadership, more than 3 million Africans with HIV have access to medication, 44 percent of those in need. That's a significant increase, though much more needs to be done.

Critical progress has also been made on malaria and education. In less than 2 years, thanks to expanded distribution of bednets and malaria medication, malaria deaths in Africa have been cut in half in countries like Ethiopia, Rwanda and Zambia. Between 1999 and 2006, 34 million additional children in Africa were enrolled in school for the first time.

几年来,全世界为帮助非洲摆脱极端贫困和传染性疾病投入了很多,而且成果也颇丰。在2002年,非洲感染HIV病毒的人群中,仅有五万人可以获得药物治疗,这一数字仅占非洲感染人群的百分之一。今天,在非洲政府和全世界各国的共同努力下,已有百分之四十四的感染人群(超过三百万非洲人)接受了药物治疗。同样在控制疟疾和提高非洲人教育水平方面也有了很大的进展。在短短两年内,非洲的有些国家,如埃塞俄比亚、卢旺达和赞比亚,罹患疟疾而死亡的人数已经减少了一半。从1999年到2006年,有三千四百万非洲儿童走进了校园。这些数字告诉我们,全世界在帮助非洲提高生活水平的道路上已经走了坚实和有力的步伐,成果是值得肯定的。但是同时,我们也不能忘记,我们需要做的还有很多很多。
