.hiv is a proposed TLD for spreading awareness, raising funds and joining in the fight against HIV and AIDS. The German non profit organisation is supported by the creative agency kempertrautmann [1], the online donation plattform betterplace.org [2], members of the ICANN community, the medical sciences community, and members of the HIV communities.[3] The application for the TLD is set to be submitted in January, 2012.[4]

One goal is that every major website currently under a different TLD could create an additional .hiv version which forwards to the standard domain (e.g. google could run, google.hiv alongside google.com). The user can chose whether he/she addresses the content through the standard web adress or via the .hiv-adress.
The difference: Every click on a .hiv-domain will result in a microdonation to organizations fighting HIV and AIDS, financed trough the accumulated registration fees. [5]

A little movie explains the main concept in 111 seconds: [3] Movie.

Anyone, who is interested in the project, can contribute towards it by contacting dotHIV through their email address.
