PlusNews Interviews Global Fund Director of Country ProgramsJuly 25, 2012 In 2010, after allegations of fraud among some fund recipients in several countries, the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria convened "an independent, high-level panel to review its financial controls and how grant money is spent," and the Fund "is now implementing the panel's recommendations," PlusNews reports. At the XIX International AIDS Conference (AIDS 2012), the news service interviewed Mark Eldon-Edington, the Global Fund's director of country programs, "to find out what the changes in the grant-making process will mean for beneficiaries." Eldon-Edington discusses the reasons for focusing on grant-making reform, what changes have already been made, and how the changes will affect countries in future grant rounds, among other issues (7/24).
