From Henry J. Kaiser Family Foundation

November 27, 2012

In the Center for Strategic & International Studies' (CSIS) "Smart Global Health" blog, Todd Summers, senior adviser at the CSIS Global Health Policy Center, reviews the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria's old rounds-based grant system that the Global Fund Board recently agreed to replace with a new funding model "that's designed to be flexible, focused, and fast," he says. Summers describes some of the shortcomings of the old model, outlines the "[c]ore attributes" of the new model, and writes, "Many other important aspects of the new funding model remain to be worked out, and some larger questions remain. I'll try to highlight some of these in upcoming blogs" (11/26).
