8th Call for Proposals of the Global Fund – 8 Urgent Actions

8Ème appel À propositions du fonds mondial – 8 actions urgentes

OCTAVA CONVOCATORIA DE PROPUESTAS DEL FONDO MUNDIAL - 8 ACCIONES URGENTES

Объявление Глобального фонда о приеме заявок на участие в восьмом раунде: 8 срочных шагов

A new civil society-led global initiative has been launched - the Civil Society Action Team (CSAT).  It aims to coordinate, broker, and advocate for technical support to civil society organizations implementing or seeking grants from the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, TB and Malaria (Global Fund).

The Global Fund is one of the largest funding mechanisms supporting health projects in developing countries.  As more Global Fund supported projects are implemented, some are experiencing bottlenecks and delays. As an innovative performance-based granting mechanism, continued funding is dependent on overcoming these challenges. Under-performing projects require technical support and capacity strengthening.  However, civil society organizations have not been receiving sufficient support – which is why CSAT was launched.

CSAT aims to help civil society organizations with project proposals and implementation – through brokering technical support and coordinating advocacy nationally, regionally and globally.
