Simplifying the Global Fund
BG/290607/4
• What is the Global Fund
• What has it achieved together with countries
• Architecture - How does it work
• The Global Fund process from proposal development to implementation
The Global Fund is an independent public-private partnership mandated:
- To raise and to disburse substantial new resources - To operate transparently and accountably
- To achieve sustained impact on HIV/AIDS, TB, and malaria
What is the Global Fund?
BG/111006/1
Guiding Principles
1. Operate as a financial instrument, not an implementing entity
2. Make available and leverage additional financial resources
3. Support programs that reflect national ownership
4. Operate in a balanced manner in terms of different regions, diseases and interventions
5. Pursue an integrated and balanced approach to prevention and treatment
6. Evaluate proposals through independent review processes
7. Establish a simplified, rapid and innovative grant-making process and operate transparently, with accountability
BG/290607/2
A new way of doing business
• Supports programs that evolve from national plans to fill critical gaps at country level
• Recognizes only a country driven, coordinated approach for proposal development and implementation
• Its core function remains that of financing, disbursing and managing new funds
• Relies on its partnerships with other development and technical partners, civil society and the private sector to support countries in delivering effective programs and services to communities in need

• Ensure clear strategies that meet the needs of most affected & marginalised people.
• Consultation with constituents while providing transparency to the general public
The Process Used by the Global Fund
• Global Fund calls for proposals (March 1st)
• CCM collaborates to prepare proposals

• Secretariat screens the proposals for elegibility
• Technical review panel reviews proposals and submits to the Global Fund Board for approval
The Process Used by the Global Fund
• Global Fund appoints a Local Fund Agent (LFA)
