This
publication is a collection of stories on
the impact of the Global Fund to fight AIDS,
Tuberculosis and Malaria from different
individuals and organizations in 11
countries on the African continent. For
seven years the Global Fund has tirelessly
been involved in prevention and treatment
efforts to eradicate these three pandemics.
These stories come from a variety of
sources: people living with HIV/AIDS, those
receiving mosquito nets, government agencies
strengthening national health systems and
organizations involved in the fight in their
communities. All their recognizable efforts
echo the importance of the financial
assistance received by the Global Fund.
“Friends Africa fills an
important niche by supporting the work of the Global Fund in Africa. By
taking the lead to fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria in their own
countries, Friends Africa will help to engage all relevant actors in the
fight against these diseases. The efforts of civil society
organizations, such as Friends Africa, are critical if African countries
are to achieve the millennium Development Goals.” -
Kofi Annan,Former Secretary General
of the United Nation from 1997 to 2007
