Global Fund: update on adaptation measures for Grant Cycle 7 (GC7) grants

On 16th May the Global Fund shared an update on adaptation measures for Grant Cycle 7 (GC7) grants in the context of reduced international funding for health programs. The Update contains information to support CCMs, PRs and partners in their planning for the reprioritization of investments:

  • In the event that the Global Fund needs to reduce allocation funding for GC7, indicative reduced grant amounts will be communicated by mid-June. CCMs will then have a two week period to respond to the Global Fund (more information will follow). 
  • A programmatic reprioritization approach document will also be shared by mid-June; all reprioritization decisions will need to take into account country context. 
  • Guidance on revising grants will be shared by mid-June as well. All grant revisions will need to be fully completed and signed by PRs and the Global Fund, with CCMs in agreement, by end-September at the latest.

More information can also be found in the slides included.
