Background

The Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria (“the Global Fund”) was created in January 2002 to dramatically increase resources to fight three of the world’s most devastating diseases (AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria), and to direct those resources to areas of greatest need. As a partnership between governments, civil society, the private sector and affected communities, the Global Fund represents an innovative approach to international health financing.

The Global Fund bases its work on programmes that reflect national ownership and respect country partnership-led formulation and implementation processes. The Global Fund promotes partnerships among all relevant players within the country and across all sectors of society. It builds on existing coordination mechanisms and promotes new and innovative partnerships. In addition, the Global Fund strengthens and reflects high-level, sustainable political involvement and commitment in making allocations of its resources.

The Global Fund supports existing and new innovative programmes both within and outside the health sector that promote public, private and nongovernmental efforts for scaling up the prevention, treatment, care and support to those that are directly affected.

The Global Fund is a non-profit foundation under Swiss Law and its headquarters are based in Geneva, Switzerland. The Global Fund is accountable to its Board, the highest decision-making body, which consists of representatives of donors, recipient countries, civil society, the private sector and non-governmental organisations as well as other stakeholders from a broad range of interest groups and communities, including multi-lateral organisations.
