TB Key Populations and the Global Fund’s Sixth Replenishment
Why Key Populations Need a Fully Funded Global Fund and Why the Global Fund Needs Fully Engaged TB Communities
Today GFAN released its report on TB key populations and the Global Fund replenishment. The purpose of this report is to highlight the important work being done by the Global Fund to address the specific needs faced by key populations around the world who are disproportionately affected by TB, and how we risk losing the immense strides we have made against the disease if we do not fully fund the Global Fund.
“This is TB’s moment. The hard work of people affected by TB, and those who advocate for them, have galvanized politcal will and has resulted in an historic UN High-Level Meetng. It is now critcal that everyone works together to hold countries accountable for the commitments they make.“
Dr. Eric Goosby – UN Secretary General’s Special Envoy on Tuberculosis

Because of limited resources the @GlobalFund ‘s Register of Unfunded Quality Demand has over $US22 million worth of #TB programming targeting key populations currently going unfunded #GetBackonTrack #EndtheEpidemics #UNHLMTB https://www.globalfundadvocatesnetwork.org/tb-key-populations-and-the-global-funds-sixth-replenishment/
Each year, approximately 10.4 million people develop active TB disease. About 4 million (40%) of them go undetected and untreated #EndtheEpidemics #UNHLMTB https://www.globalfundadvocatesnetwork.org/tb-key-populations-and-the-global-funds-sixth-replenishment/ @GlobalFund @StopTB
To #EndtheEpidemics we need at least 20% in increased investment in The Global Fund. Donor countries and other funding partners should aim to invest at least US$ 4.8 billion through the Global Fund for #TB programs in 2020-2022. https://www.globalfundadvocatesnetwork.org/tb-key-populations-and-the-global-funds-sixth-replenishment/ #UNHLMTB @GlobalFund

Each year, approximately 10.4 million people develop active TB disease. About 4 million (40%) of them go undetected or unreported and therefore, untreated. They continue to be neglected by health systems and are confronted by social, legal, and economic disparities that contribute to their poor health.

A successful Global Fund replenishment in 2019 is needed to begin to close the gaps for key and vulnerable populations and expand access to high-quality, evidence-based programming that will get us back on track to end the epidemics. To #EndtheEpidemics we need at least a 20% increased investment in The Global Fund. Donor countries and other funding partners should aim to invest at least US$ 4.8 billion through the Global Fund for TB programs in 2020-2022.
