FOCUS ON: The Crucial Role of Communities: Strengthening Responses to HIV, Tuberculosis and Malaria

Community voices and leadership in governance, implementation and oversight of Global Fund-supported programs is essential to achieving lasting impact.

Lessons from the Ebola response and the transition to the Sustainable Development Goals, with the specific target of achieving universal health coverage, have spurred the Global Fund to reflect on how people access health services and how countries respond to health crises. Rethinking our approaches to building resilient and sustainable systems for health will be essential in order to maximize equitable access and impact on HIV, TB and malaria.
