GFAN POSTING: Government of Canada Call to Action and Communications Toolkit for the 5th Global Fund Replenishment Conference

Approximately 50% of the Global Fund investments supports procurements of medicines; health products and equipment. Given that these important features will remain central in building resilient and sustainable systems for health, ensuring that more than US$13 billion is pledged by donors for the Global Fund 5th Replenishment is essential to make real progress and scale-up gender transformative interventions. The Global Fund, and the global community, will fail to end the epidemics if there is inadequate financial support to achieve its committed mission of addressing gender inequality and human rights.

The Government of Canada and the Global Fund launched a Call to Action and 2 Communications Toolkits (here) in the lead-up to the 5th Global Fund Replenishment Conference taking place in Montreal, Quebec on September 16th and 17th, 2016.
