TB kills more people than any other infectious disease and is the leading killer of people living with HIV; about one in three deaths among people with HIV are due to TB.
The Global Fund provides 69% of all international financing for tuberculosis (10% of total available resources) and has disbursed US$6.6 billion for TB programs and US$2.1 for TB/ HIV programs as of June 2019.

The Global Fund has a history of doing extraordinary work: Few
investments have had the impact that the Global Fund has in saving lives,
preventing infections and creating strong and resilient health systems. We are
at a critical moment where the minimum will not be enough to prevent us from
sliding back.
Get Back
on Track
GFAN has argued for the past year that increased
investments in the Global Fund are critical to get back on track, meet
sustainable development goals and to end the epidemics by 2030. Without increased investment we could see
resurgences of the 3 diseases, impacting the lives and health of millions. The need for a Replenishment of at least
