for Global Fund to fight
TB, AIDS and Malaria Round 11 Call for
Proposals
REF: CCM/R11/08/11
The Government of Lesotho, through its Country
Coordinating Mechanism (CCM) intends to make an
application to the Global Fund to fight AIDS, TB
and Malaria (GFATM) under the Round 11 Call for
Proposals. The CCM has identified the following
as key focus areas for Round 11:
-
Health systems (HSS) and community systems (CSS)
strengthening, focusing on the delivery of
an integrated package of primary health
services, including TB, HIV and maternal,
new born and child health (MNCH) at the
community and household level.
-
Strengthening prevention, diagnosis, care
and treatment of TB disease at community
level.
HSS and CSS activities are those that try to
improve the general systems and structures for
the delivery of health care services and
community-based interventions at community
level. Proposals or concept notes should be
guided by the health systems and community
system strengthening frameworks for Global Fund
(www.theglobalfund.org)
and WHO (http://www.who.int/healthsystems/en/).
Proposals should also be aligned to the
Millennium Development Goals and other relevant
plans and strategies aimed to improve MNCH at
community and household level in Lesotho.
Proposals or concept notes addressing TB should
be aligned to the goals and objectives of the
National TB Program and the Global Stop TB
Strategy.
All submissions should include goals,
objectives, program activities, costs and
performance indicators. Please note this is
not a call for funding proposals.
An information session regarding the proposal
development process will be held at the Ministry
of Health and Social Welfare auditorium on
Monday 24th October
2011 between 2.15 p.m. and 4 p.m for all
