Meaningful engagement and inclusion of people living with and affected by HIV, tuberculosis and malaria are essential to ensure that the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria’s (TGF) investments are informed by strong evidence and grounded in a rights-based approach.
This Toolkit aims to support facilitators and community representatives in countries eligible for TGF funding in conducting meaningful and inclusive community consultations to inform GC8 funding requests.
It focuses on strengthening community engagement in identifying and prioritizing the programmatic needs of their diverse constituencies, so these can be included in the funding requests submitted to TGF.
This Toolkit can be used either partially or in full. It is intended to guide and support technical teams, and should be adapted to the national context, the needs of each country, and the dynamics of communities and civil society.

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).

Report: Community Engagement for the Reprioritization of Jamaica Global Fund Grant Cycle 7

by | Jan 28, 2026 |

The global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria is being impacted by the rapid changes in the global health program landscape. However, it continues to provide support for countries and communities to respond to these changes. The Global Fund has employed a two-pronged approach: temporarily pausing select components of grant implementation until funds are received and reducing a portion of national grants while reassessing and reprioritizing key interventions. The original Jamaica Global Fund Grant Cycle 7 (GC7), 2025-2027, grant was reduced from USD$15,423,239 to USD $13,232,666. This indicates a14.2% reduction in the total allocation. A key principle in the reprioritization process is the promotion of inclusive and transparent decision making. In this regard the Country Coordinating Mechanisms (CCM) are tasked with organizing meeting with CCM members to discuss the reprioritization of interventions and as needed the revision of budget amounts.
