Participation in the Global Fund processes

This Guide is written for communities, civil society organizations, and key population
networks to support their engagement in Sustainability, Transition and Co-Financing
(STC) under the Global Fund and grant cycle 8 (GC8).

Integration is a strategic process that supports
sustainability, efficiency, and responsiveness to
people’s needs. It replaces fragmented approaches
with a unified model that maximizes impact and
promotes equity and accountability.

Health systems and community health systems are essential to achieving universal health coverage. They help ensure that everyone has safe, equitable access to prevention and treatment services. Within this framework, the Global Fund supports and includes communities at every stage of the HIV, tuberculosis, and malaria responses.

Following efforts to initiate and expand antiretroviral therapy in Latin America and the Caribbean, the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria has, over the past decade, focused on financing the delivery of HIV, tuberculosis, and malaria prevention services. These efforts include diagnostic strategies, referrals to health services, and, specifically for HIV, access to pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP). The GF has also invested in strengthening national health systems through Community-Led Monitoring (CLM).
