Clone of Strengthening the response to pandemics in Ghana
L’ Initiative conducted a joint mission with the Global Fund and France Team to support Ghana in its fight against pandemics and strengthen its ties with civil society organizations and local partners. This mission was marked by the official launch of two projects: the first one led by the Ghana Health Service (GHS) and the second - an operational research project, led by the Noguchi Memorial Institute for Medical Research.
At the end of April, L’ Initiative organized a joint mission with the Regional Health Adviser and the Global Fund's country team in order to further develop its portfolio in the country in synergy with other French actors, the French Embassy, AFD and IRD. During this week, both within the CCM (Country Coordinating Mechanism) and with the main recipients of the Global Fund or civil society, L’ Initiative took advantage of the encounters to better understand the needs that would improve the performance of the actors supported by the Global Fund in the fight against pandemics. The Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria has supported Ghana since 2002; in total, more than US$1.2 billion has been signed with this country in the last twenty years. This mission allowed the meeting of CSOs with key and vulnerable populations in Ghana.
