Download or read book Crs Report for Congress written by Tiaji Salaam-Blyther and published by BiblioGov. This book was released on 2013-11 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis, and Malaria (Global Fund, or the Fund) was established in 2002 as a public-private partnership that could provide significant financial support for global responses to HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis (TB), and malaria. By the end of 2011, the Global Fund had approved roughly $22.6 billion to help 150 countries fight these three diseases. According to the Global Fund, from 2002 through 2011, it had supported AIDS treatment for 3.3 million HIV-positive people, anti-tuberculosis treatment for 8.6 million people, and 230 million insecticide-treated nets for the prevention of malaria, saving about 7.7 million lives. In November 2011, the Global Fund Board announced that due to inadequate resources from donors, it would cancel its 11th round of funding, but would maintain support for existing activities to avoid disruptions in ongoing services. The Fund also announced that it expected to offer new funding for grants in 2014. The United States has demonstrated strong support for the Global Fund since making a founding pledge in 2001. U.S. officials have served on several Global Fund boards, U.S. contributions to the Fund have surpassed those of any other country, and U.S. global HIV/AIDS, TB, and malaria programs have been increasingly coordinated with Global Fund activities. Donors last met on October 4, 2010, to make their pledges for the Global Fund over the next three years. There, the United States made its first multiyear pledge to the Fund of $4 billion.

Book The Global Fund to Fight AIDS  Tuberculosis  and Malaria  Background and Current Issues

Download or read book The Global Fund to Fight AIDS Tuberculosis and Malaria Background and Current Issues written by and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 17 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis, and Malaria, headquartered in Geneva, Switzerland, is an independent foundation intended to attract and rapidly disburse new resources in developing countries for the struggle against infectious disease. The Fund is a financing vehicle, not a development agency, and its grants are intended to complement existing efforts rather than replace them. The origins of the concept of an independent funding mechanism to fight AIDS and other diseases lie partly in a French proposal made in 1998, in ideas developed in the 106th Congress, and in recommendations made by U.N. Secretary General Kofi Annan in April 2001. President Bush made the founding pledge of $200 million for a disease fund in May 2001. The Global Fund was established in January 2002, following negotiations involving donor and developing country governments, nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), the private sector, and the United Nations. Through four rounds of grant awards, the Global Fund has approved 313 projects in 127 countries. Proposals are submitted to the Global Fund by Country Coordinating Mechanisms (CCMs) based in the recipient countries and including representatives of the public and private sectors, NGOs, people living with the diseases, and others. Grants are made to Principal Recipients (PRs), which may be NGOs or government agencies, and their operations must be audited. PRs are also monitored by Local Funding Agents (LFAs), which may be accounting firms or other independent organizations, and which report to the Global Fund. Contributions to the Fund to date total $3.4 billion, and the Fund has disbursed just over $1 billion. The Fund estimates that it needs $2.2 billion in 2005 to cover grant renewals and new grants, while $1.4 billion has been pledged to date.
