Reforming The Global Fund
• Shift from emergency response to sustainability and
fiduciary responsibility
• Status quo insufficient
• Maintain donor confidence
• All want better risk management ; safeguarding of
resources; more efficient operations; value for
money
Donors are linking commitments to concrete results on reforms

Overview TFM
•
Targeted funding opportunity to focus limited resources on critical protection of
gains achieved in the fight against the three diseases as a transition to the new
Strategy
Eligibility
Proposal scope
Review and
approval
process
•
In principle ECFP applies (e.g. Counterpart Financing, Targeted Pool,
prioritization etc.)
•
2-year funding request
•
Limited to continuation, and no scale-up
•
Essential/critical services
•
Request of relevant HSS support- only through embedding in disease
proposals (no separate HSS component)
•
NSA funding requests based on same scope
•
Materials available 12 December 2011
•
Submission deadline 31 March 2012
•
TRP meeting during second quarter 2012 and intermediate Board endorsement
•
Grant negotiation schedule determined by program needs/prioritization measures
•
Rolling Board approval and grant start dates

“Transitional Funding Mechanism (TFM)”
Application & Review
Funding
Funding
Transformation Funding Mechanism
• Replace Round 11 with a new “Transitional Funding
Mechanism” - to provide continuation of essential
prevention, treatment and/or care services to existing
grantees
• Process will involve a tailored application and an iterative
review process to ensure high impact and strategic
investments
• Develop new business model to enable funding from 2014,
based on principles of the new GF 2012-2016 Strategy
Transitional Funding Mechanism
• The Global Fund Board decided to replace Round 11
with the Transitional Funding Mechanism due to
inadequate resources
– protect the gains achieved (e.g. interventions whose
interruption would mean a significant rebound in
transmission); and
– save lives; and
– are high impact, evidence-based, targeted to most
appropriate populations and represent good value for
money in a resource-constrained environment
Eg. Essential Services –HIV and AIDS
•
•
•
•
antiretroviral therapy
TB screening and treatment among PLWHA
PMTCT
Prevention and treatment targeted at key populations
with high levels of incidence (including evidence-based
programs reaching men who have sex with men,
people who inject drugs, prisoners and sex workers)
• Male circumcision where indicated (i.e. in settings with
high prevalence and low rates of male circumcision).
Eg Not Likely to be Funded in TFM
• scale up of antiretroviral therapy,
• untargeted population approaches to HIV prevention
(including mass media campaigns), general population
HIV testing in concentrated epidemics, generalized
nutritional support, blood safety, universal
precautions, pre-exposure prophylaxis, infrastructure
development, procurement of vehicles, and
generalized/untargeted trainings.

From Aug 2012/2013
on a rolling basis
TRP review to:
•
Assess the technical merit in accordance with existing review criteria
•
Determine whether applicants have demonstrated a risk of disruption of
essential prevention, treatment and/or care services; and
•
Assess whether the activities for which funding is sought cannot be funded by
alternate sources of funding.

Bridge Funding Mechanism implications
Policy area
Changes
Scope
• Bridge Funding will continue existing program at the same scale
• “Essential treatment, prevention and care services” are not yet
clearly defined and will be determined by the TRP
Eligible Grants
• Grants to expire between 31 December 2011 and 31 December 2012
• If TFM funding becomes available prior to BFM end date, the bridge
funding amount will be adjusted to avoid duplicative financing
Reimbursement
• Relevant costs should be reimbursed if the corresponding request is
approved
• If not, reduced from the existing cash balance of the PR
Performance Based
Funding
• Performance of the grant should be factored in deciding the funding
amount of BFM
Priority of Funding
• Priority of bridge funding is the same with that of TFM
• Lower priority than CoS, Renewals, and Round 10 funding needs

Key modifications to renewals
ECFP
Policy & Process
55% Rule
•
G-20 UMIs no longer eligible for renewals unless
have “extreme” disease burden
•
Grants made ineligible will receive transition funding
if renewal scheduled for 2012
•
Counterpart Financing and Focus of Proposal
requirements apply
•
Review of composition and role of Grant Renewals
Panel and involvement of TRP
•
Revisit reprogramming policy and processes
•
Revisit role of Country Team members and technical
partners in developing CCM Request for Renewal
•
Develop guidance for countries and CTs: defining an
‘iterative process’
•
Funding for LICs must be at least 55% of portfolio
distribution in any given funding opportunity
