Private Sector (including Foundations)

Delivery Innovation

Private and nongovernment partners help Global Fund-supported disease and health systems programs work better by sharing their knowledge, skills and technologies. Our partners tackle critical and complex challenges in program implementation, operations and delivery. Often in the form of in-kind resources, these contributions enhance efficiency, increase effectiveness, support cost effectiveness, create innovative solutions and leverage new technologies.

Some of our innovative partnerships:

  • Improve data collection, analysis and management
  • Build mobile platforms for behavior change
  • Strengthen in-country supply chain management
  • Enhance implementer financial management

Additional partners

    Manchester City

    • The Global Fund joined forces with Manchester City’s global foundation to build in-country capacity in blending football and health for greater programmatic efficiency and reach. The partnership uses the positive power of football to promote behavior change and disease prevention and promotes leadership development and training in support of young women and adolescent girls. The program was first rolled in Tanzania and aims to reach 14,500 young boys and girls and train up to 180 youth leaders.

    Mastercard

    • The Global Fund and Mastercard have partnered to improve the delivery of health programs in a number of African countries over 2020-2022. Mastercard brings its expertise on data and deploying technology to improve the delivery of frontline health services. Building on its experience of building and running a global payments network, Mastercard has designed and built a number of digital platforms and products to help the most marginalized individuals and communities get access to critical services, such as education and agriculture. Mastercard is now applying this approach in the health sector. For example, Wellness Pass, a platform currently being piloted with Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance, enables the digitization and safe storage of patient records to help patients access their records more easily and health workers to deliver a more consistent continuum of care.

    PharmAccess Foundation

    • The Global Fund’s partnership with PharmAccess Foundation supports African countries to accelerate progress toward universal health coverage by harnessing digital technology. PharmAccess, a Dutch nongovernmental organization with a presence in Africa, is dedicated to championing the development of mobile and digital technology platforms to expand access to affordable health care in sub-Saharan Africa.
