CCM Evolution Project

ABSTRACT After 18 months of discussions and consultations, the Board is set to decide which recommendations from the CCM Evolution Project it will adopt, how much additional funding (if any) it will approve, and where the funds will come from. We provide a preview of the discussions which will take place at the Board meeting on 9-10 May in Skopje, Macedonia.

ABSTRACT On 12-15 September, in Abidjan, Côte d’Ivoire, representatives from 21 country coordinating mechanisms, mostly from West and Central Africa, discussed the challenges they face in ensuring that their CCMs function effectively. This was one of five regional CCM consultations held in August and September. Most of the participants said they were not comfortable with the concept of differentiated models for CCMs proposed by the Global Fund Secretariat.

ABSTRACT A consultation on country coordinating mechanisms held in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia on 5-8 September, provided an opportunity for CCM members from 15 countries to discuss challenges facing CCMs and to put forward ideas for addressing the challenges. Participants also provided feedback on the Global Fund’s proposed CCM evolution project. The consultation was one of five regional consultations organized by the Global Fund and partner organizations.
