Impact of the Global Fund on Ethiopia's Health Care System
With approved grants totaling over $713 million to date, the Global Fund to Fight HIV/AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria (GF) is the largest donor in Ethiopia. Given the country's size and the magnitude of its HIV-related health challenges, such financial support is welcome and needed. However, critical questions remain as to how Ethiopia's health system can absorb and effectively use such a sizeable amount of funds, and answers to these questions can help stakeholders and implementers promote effective and timely use of the funds while strengthening Ethiopia's health system and leadership capabilities.
