The
Global Fund in its official statement has said that it would be allocating a
huge sum for certain eligible countries to combat AIDS, tuberculosis, and
malaria.
An
amount of $ 12.71 billion has been proposed for country allocations and an
amount of $ 890 million for catalytic investments to ensure the safety of 16
million lives by reducing casualties caused by AIDS, tuberculosis, and malaria
by 2030.
“World
leaders came together at our Replenishment and made commitments to step up the
fight to end these epidemics by 2030,” Peter Sands, Executive Director of the
Global Fund was quoted as saying.
“Now
the real work begins. Our allocations will allow partners to expand programs
that work, and to find innovative solutions for new challenges. In addition to
more money, we need better collaboration and more effective programs.” Peter
Sands further added.
