I

I may be totally wrong, but one is left with a perception the $15 b Bush initiative was distributed through Global fund, which is not correct. Is this an observation by other wikipedians or is it a case of being unable to read correctly, English being a second language? And do we have an article on Bush AIDS Initiative? A hard subject to write on, but I was just curious how its going and can't seem to find a wikipedia article anywhere? gathima 15:58, 4 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Merge with Global Fund

Seems like a no-brainer to me. I suggest the article title "Global Fund" is preferable to the longer version. Trezatium 16:23, 21 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Considering one is a shorthand for the other, it is natural to merge them. Having two articles briefly confused my research. Merge. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 222.102.210.10 (talk • contribs) .

No question. Merge them. ArchonMeld 22:08, 27 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Done. I chose the longer article title in the end, but feel free to change it. Trezatium 13:56, 28 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Kazatchkine

M. Kazatchkine became Exec. Director last month. If someone wants to make a page about him, his bio is on the Global Fund site, here: http://www.theglobalfund.org/en/media_center/press/pr_070208.asp --Shoshoni 06:16, 13 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Oki added Michel and made a small page on him. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Aidstbmalaria (talk • contribs) 10:28, 3 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

China abuse

China claims an unfair amount apparently. Seems worth adding. Malick78 (talk) 23:08, 5 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Yomesccc (talk) 05:33, 17 July 2021 (UTC)== Corruption == This Associated Press Investigation and report/story seems pretty important amoung Reliable Sources, so this section needs quite a bit of Editor attention and expansion. Mr.Grantevans2 (talk) 00:29, 26 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The GFATM would like editor attention on this claim for removal: "GFATM members have since then posted discrediting comments on people providing additional information on these dealings [18] or tried to make their comments disappear with press releases and marketing write-ups[19]." There are no sources to support this argument and the sources that are cited [18] [19] do not support this claim in any way. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.65.48.200 (talk) 10:01, 10 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The GFATM would like editor attention on this claim for removal: "The Fund's Inspector General's office (OIG) which uncovered the corruption has been newly reinforced after the post was vacant for more than a year and was only created during 2005, years after the GFATM started to disburse US$ billions of funds into grants.[22]." The source cited claiming this does not mention anything to this nature.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.65.48.200 (talk • contribs) February 2011‎

The GFATM would like editor attention to state the facts on the following claim: "Severe cases of corruption have been found in several African countries such as Mali, Mauritania, Djibouti and Zambia." It is not several, it is 4 out of 145 countries receiving Global Fund grants.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.65.48.200 (talk • contribs) February 2011‎

The Global Fund's response to AP story on misuse of funds

The Global Fund would like to join this discussion in order to get some editor attention on the Misuse of Funds section. We believe in order for a full picture of the situation to be presented, a section underneath ‘Misuse of Funds’ should be added that highlights the Global Fund’s response to the AP stories. This is the Global Fund's official response: http://www.theglobalfund.org/en/pressreleases/?pr=pr_110124.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.65.48.200 (talk • contribs) 15:51, 2 February 2011‎

Operations - Pope Benedict XVI says...

With what authority does the Pope speak on the control of malaria? That the catholic church forbids the use of condoms is canonical - of course the Pope doesn't think that'll solve the problem. The whole statement is inappropriate and prejudiced and should be stricken from the article.Sbalfour (talk) 18:37, 31 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Updating/Restructuring Page

The content of this page needs significant updating.

May I propose the following changes: - combining the "Fundraising", "Replenishment phases" and "Financing, major donations and administration" section - deleting the "combination therapies" section, which is empty and not relevant to the organization - deleting the "10th anniversary" section (it was four years ago) - revising the section on "Creation" - incorporating the "Affordable medicines facility - malaria" text

Other changes are needed, but this would be a good start.

Any comments?BAB Geneva (talk) 11:57, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I wholeheartedly agree with your proposed consolidations! I will put some into effect. 174.20.214.31 (talk) 16:48, 28 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Creation section needs significant overhauling

The detail in the creation section is excessive. I propose eliminating the meeting-by-meeting narrative and references to most individuals to create a more streamlined and cohesive section. The section currently reads like primary research on the movement to found the organization rather than providing well-sourced facts. I made a first attempt, which you can view in [sandbox]. Let me know what you think. Hakisalim (talk) 00:20, 10 July 2018 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hakisalim (talk • contribs) 01:30, 9 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
