Support to the Global Fund is aligned to Denmark's strategy for development cooperation, “The World We Share”, which aims at fighting and preventing poverty and inequality, as well as conflict, displacement and irregular migration, while strengthening resilience towards climate change.
The foundation of Denmark’s development cooperation is anchored in democratic values and human rights. In particular, promoting and protecting the rights of girls and women along with vulnerable and marginalized groups.
The right to health for all is a cornerstone of Denmark’s development policy, and the Global Fund is seen as a key partner in this regard. Denmark supports the Global Fund’s comprehensive approach, including its efforts to addressing sexual and reproductive health and rights, and more broadly, linking reproductive, maternal, new-born and child health interventions in its HIV, TB and malaria programs.
The Strategy for the Cooperation Between Denmark and The Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria (the Global Fund) 2024 to 2028 outlines the basis and the priorities for Denmark’s contributions to the Global Fund. It is the central platform for Denmark’s dialogue and partnership with the Global Fund, and it sets up Danish priorities for the Global Fund’s performance within the overall framework established by the Global Fund’s own strategy (2023-2028). The organization strategy also outlines specific results that Denmark will pursue in its continued cooperation with the organization.
Denmark is part of Point Seven Constituency, composed of Denmark, Ireland, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway and Sweden, on the Global Fund Board. It held the constituency’s seat on the Board from April 2015 to June 2017. The Permanent Mission of Denmark to the United Nations in Geneva manages the relationship with the Global Fund.
