In April 2020, the Global Fund established C19RM to support countries in responding to COVID-19 and mitigate its impact on programs to fight HIV, TB, malaria and systems for health. The pandemic continues to have a devastating impact on global health systems, jeopardizing the fight against HIV, TB and malaria and progress towards the 2030 goals for the three diseases. On 7 April 2021, the Global Fund launched the second phase of C19RM.
All countries, including regional/multi-country recipients that are currently receiving funding from the Global Fund, are eligible to receive C19RM funding.
Here, you can find guidance on C19RM from the Global Fund and from key population networks and communities.
