Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, whether the UK will continue its commitment to the Global Fund to fight AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria by maintaining its levels of investment at the 7th Replenishment later this year.

Answer

The Global Fund is a high performing organisation that, with partners, has saved 44 million lives to date. The UK is proud to be the organisations third largest donor historically, and the second largest donor to the last replenishment with a pledge of up to £1.46 billion.

As set out in the International Development Strategy (IDS), global health will remain a top priority. The decision on the UK's contribution to the Global Fund's seventh replenishment will be taken in due course.

We will continue to contribute financial and leadership support to the Global Fund as a key partner in the shared global fight against AIDS, TB, and malaria.
