The Global Fund has already awarded over US $700 million last

organizations, the private sector and people living with the
diseases.According to its board chair,
Tommy Thompson, the Global Fund is looking for proposals of the highest

The Global Fund will accept proposals from
your Country Coordination Mechanism (CCM). The CCM functions as a
national consensus group that coordinates the submission of one
national proposal. CCMs typically include broad representation from
government agencies, NGOs, community-based organizations, people living
with the diseases, private sector institutions and bilateral and
multilateral agencies.The CCM in your is responsible for
faciliating the proposal development process; ensuring that all
relevant actors are involved and that all views are taken into account,
and approving and endorsing the final version of a single country
proposal. The CCM is expected to be responsive to all national
stakeholders wishing to scale-up their activities as part of national
efforts.To
