Summary

Create an Advisory Board for the Trust Fund. Its members must come from a wide mix of leaders with experience in areas like development, HIV/AIDS care, disease study, medicine, biomedical research, and social sciences, plus representatives from relevant United Nations agencies and nongovernmental groups working in affected countries. The Board must give advice and guidance to the Trustees on planning and running the Fund’s projects and on drawing in and using donations. Board members get no pay for serving, but they may be reimbursed for travel and daily travel allowance; a U.S. representative cannot accept pay for serving, though they may receive travel reimbursement and daily allowances while away from home or work.
