Country Coordinating Mechanisms are national committees that submit funding applications to the Global Fund and oversee grants on behalf of their countries. They are a key element of the Global Fund partnership.
The latest developments on strengthening Country Coordinating Mechanisms’ contribution to health governance are in our Evolution page.
A Country Coordinating Mechanism – often called a “CCM” – includes representatives of all sectors involved in the response to the diseases: academic institutions, civil society, faith-based organizations, government, multilateral and bilateral agencies, nongovernmental organizations, people living with the diseases, the private sector and technical agencies.
A Country Coordinating Mechanism transparently and inclusively:
- Coordinates the development of the national request for funding
- Nominates the Principal Recipient
- Oversees the implementation of approved grants
- Approves any reprogramming requests
- Ensures linkages and consistency between Global Fund grants and other national health and development programs
More information on the role of Country Coordinating Mechanisms, including a full list of constituencies represented, is in our overarching policy:
