As of the end of 2023, health programs supported by the Global Fund partnership have saved 65 million lives.
The Global Fund partnership – led by country partners, communities affected by the diseases and frontline health workers – demonstrated resilience and versatility, adapted rapidly to support countries in responding to the diverse challenges that affected them, and ensured continued progress in the fight against the world’s leading infectious diseases.
In 2023, the Global Fund invested US$5 billion to fight deadly infectious diseases, challenge the inequity that fuels them and strengthen health and community systems.
But the work is not finished. Working hand in hand with communities, governments, the private sector, civil society, and our technical partners, and putting people affected by the diseases at the center of the response, now is our moment to accelerate progress to end AIDS, TB and malaria.

State of the Fight: Malaria
Malaria remains a daunting global health challenge. Conflict, climate change and increasing resistance to insecticides are jeopardizing the significant gains that the Global Fund partnership has made against malaria over the last two decades. But with investments to strengthen health systems and accelerate the targeted deployment of innovative tools and trusted prevention, testing and treatment methods, the Global Fund partnership is fighting back.
- 335 million suspected cases of malaria were tested in 2023.
- 44.6 million children received seasonal malaria chemoprevention in 2023.
- 171 million cases of malaria were treated in 2023.
- 15.5 million pregnant women received preventive therapy in 2023.
- 227 million mosquito nets were distributed to protect families from malaria in 2023.
- 7.9 million structures received indoor residual spraying in 2023.

Colliding Crises
In 2023, the world was hit again by multiple crises. Even with the waning of the COVID-19 pandemic, we faced other interconnected crises including climate change, conflict, and attacks on human rights, gender equality and civil society. These crises have a direct impact on the progress we make in the fight against HIV, TB and malaria.
Human rights and gender equality
The Global Fund partnership is powered by equity, determined to ensure a healthier, safer and more equitable world for all.
Since 2017, Breaking Down Barriers has supported programs to remove human rights and gender-related barriers to services, including programs to address stigma and discrimination, in 24 countries.
By focusing on funding comprehensive programs that tackle human rights and gender-related barriers to health services, we support communities to fight back against the erosion of human rights and promote gender equality.
The Global Fund has increased investments in this initiative by more than tenfold since 2017, reaching over US$200 million in 2023.
Social Media Post: Human rights barriers, gender inequality and structural inequities can make it harder to access HIV, TB and malaria services. Since 2017, the @GlobalFund Breaking Down Barriers initiative has invested US$200 million in protecting health-related human rights. https://www.theglobalfund.org/en/results/#crises
Conflict and humanitarian crises
Through innovation, increased flexibility and partnership, the Global Fund seeks to safeguard the gains made against HIV, TB and malaria in countries affected by conflict, while building strong health and community systems.
The Global Fund prioritizes health needs in countries affected by humanitarian crises – also referred to as challenging operating environments (COEs). COEs account for approximately one-third of the global disease burden for HIV, TB and malaria and over 34% of the Global Fund’s funding allocation over the next three years. The Global Fund has disbursed US$22 billion to COEs since 2002.

Climate change
Climate change is the biggest global health challenge of our time.
Climate change is destabilizing the foundations of human health, deepening inequalities, and leading to the emergence and spread of infectious diseases.
With scale and ambition, the Global Fund is supporting countries to achieve far-reaching impact in their efforts to address the impacts on health wrought by a changing climate.
From 2023 to 2025, 71% of Global Fund investments and over 80% of Global Fund malaria funding will be directed to the 50 most climate-vulnerable countries, demonstrating the link between vulnerability to disease and climate change.

Case Study: Namibia
At the forefront of the HIV response for mothers and children
Like in many countries in sub-Saharan Africa, women in Namibia are disproportionately impacted by HIV. But a focused, ongoing campaign has put the country on the forefront of fighting the disease – particularly for mothers and children.
The rate of mother-to-child transmission of HIV has gone down by 70% over the last two decades. In 2023, 92% of HIV-positive pregnant and breastfeeding women were on antiretroviral therapy, and 98% of babies born to mothers living with HIV were born free of the disease.

Case Study: Pakistan
Chest camps bring TB services to people across the country
Pakistan has made significant strides in its fight against TB. In 2023 alone, 475,000 people were treated for TB – about 50,000 more than in 2022. Still, Pakistan ranks fifth among countries with a high burden of the disease, with millions of people living in areas without easy access to TB testing and care.
In 2014, Mercy Corps, an international humanitarian organization and Global Fund partner, launched chest camps: mobile health facilities that bring TB and health care services to people living in some of the most remote parts of Pakistan.
With the Global Fund’s support, Mercy Corps holds 600 camps per month across 110 districts. Recently, the organization procured 25 portable X-ray machines that providers can bring down narrower roads to reach rural communities – and bring TB services to more people than ever before.

Case Study: Cameroon
Fighting to protect mothers and children from malaria on all fronts
The entire population of Cameroon – 27 million people – are at risk for malaria. The disease is particularly devastating for pregnant women and young children.
Cameroon’s government, with support from the Global Fund, Gavi, the U.S. President’s Malaria Initiative, community partners and others, are working together to roll out the newest mosquito nets, preventive treatment for young children and pregnant women, the new malaria vaccine as well as community-based testing and treatment services.
By combining the latest tools in the fight against malaria, mothers and children in Cameroon now have multiple layers of protection against the disease.

Case Study: Mozambique
Wastewater reveals health threats before they spread
Wastewater holds critical information about how germs circulate within both human and animal populations. Wastewater is a cost-efficient, non-invasive tool that provides a community-wide picture of bacteria and viruses – and reveals health hazards well before they begin to impact the community.
As part of the COVID-19 Response Mechanism, the Global Fund established Project STELLAR: a project to strengthen laboratory systems, including wastewater surveillance programs, that can help health officials map COVID-19 infections and assess the disease’s impact safely and quickly. Mozambique was selected as one of four pilot countries.
Today, the Wastewater Environmental Monitoring Program at Mozambique’s National Institute of Health combines laboratory and environmental research and testing to provide near real-time information on dangerous pathogens.
Social Media Post: Mozambique’s Environmental Monitoring Program, supported by @GlobalFund , detects disease threats through wastewater testing. Initially developed to identify #COVID19 outbreaks, the system is now helping detect other diseases, including influenza and cholera. https://ow.ly/i9KR50Tl6WF
Case Study: Syria
Partnering to provide medical oxygen
Access to oxygen is at the root of resilient, responsive and equitable health care systems. According to the World Health Organization, as of September 2023, less than 50% of health facilities in low- and middle-income countries had uninterrupted access to medical oxygen – including Syria.
Following a decade of conflict in an uncertain, rapidly changing environment, three brand-new pressure swing adsorption plants – oxygen generators – were installed at Homs National Hospital, Dara’a National Hospital and Dummar National Hospital.
Syria’s oxygen plants were procured as part of a US$1 billion effort by the Global Fund and others to provide governments with what they need to deliver oxygen.
In 2023, that partnership expanded and evolved into the Global Oxygen Alliance: a group of more than 20 health agencies, country leaders and people from communities, working together to ensure better access to medical oxygen.

Case Study: Bangladesh
Providing TB services to people displaced by climate change
Bangladesh has one of the largest TB burdens in the world – but the country’s response has been consistent and robust. Deaths attributed to TB have fallen by 36% since 2015, and the country has sustained a treatment success rate of over 90% for nearly a decade.
Bangladesh is ranked the seventh extreme disaster risk-prone country in the world. Bangladesh is vulnerable to cyclones, flooding, extreme heat and rising sea levels.
Every year, climate-related disasters cause hundreds of thousands of people to move to Bangladesh’s capital, Dhaka. In Dhaka, climate migrants live in cramped living quarters with inadequate hygiene – the perfect conditions for TB to spread. In the first six months of 2024, more than 1,060 people who tested positive for TB in Dhaka were new arrivals who left home because of rain and floods.
Bangladesh’s National TB Program and BRAC, Global Fund partners in Bangladesh, are adjusting testing and treatment services to meet escalating demand in Dhaka’s poorest neighborhoods. With resilient, nimble partners, sustained investment and flexible funds to tackle evolving crises, the Global Fund is supporting Bangladesh to overcome the challenges posed by climate change and stay on course to end TB.

Case Study: Sudan
Supporting people with essential health care in crisis
Conflict in Sudan has resulted in millions of people being displaced from their homes. An estimated 75% of hospitals in conflict-affected areas in the country are unable to treat patients and medical supplies are depleted nationwide.
At the same time, Sudan has been confronted with drought and increasingly unpredictable levels of rainfall. This has fueled mass migration, displacing people within Sudan and across borders.
In response to these colliding crises, the Global Fund has invested in strengthening health systems and fighting HIV, TB and malaria in Sudan and neighboring countries. Within Sudan, this includes US$151 million in new grant agreements to provide malaria, HIV and TB services for Sudanese people, including displaced people.
A US$20 million investment through the Global Fund’s COVID-19 Response Mechanism is being used to safeguard and strengthen the country’s health systems, including strengthening medical oxygen and supply chains, supporting mobile health clinics, and providing essential resources for community health workers and community-based organizations so they can reach more people with lifesaving care.

Case Study: The Philippines
Supporting country- and community-led efforts to end malaria
The end of malaria is in sight in the Philippines. In 2002, the country recorded 70,585 cases of malaria and 180 deaths. Today, 72 of the Philippines’ 82 provinces are malaria-free.
The Global Fund works with the government, private sector partners including the Pilipinas Shell Foundation, Inc., and civil society organizations to fight malaria in Palawan, the last province where the disease is still a threat – focusing on early testing and treatment, distributing insecticide-treated mosquito nets and implementing robust community mobilization campaigns to raise awareness about the disease.
Global Fund grants also support health workers and microscopists who visit remote areas to test people for malaria, distribute mosquito nets and hold talks on prevention and treatment with nomadic and Indigenous groups.
