The bipartisan group was headed by FGFJ Diet Task Force Director Ichiro Aisawa and included Jun Matsumoto, Gaku Hashimoto, Tsuyoshi Yamaguchi, and Mitsunori Okamoto from the House of Representatives, as well as Masaaki Taniai from the House of Councilors. The trip was organized in cooperation with the Global Fund and made possible by support from the M·A·C AIDS Fund.
