About the Global Fund
Since its creation in 2002, the Global Fund has become the main financier of programs to fight AIDS, TB and malaria, with approved funding of US$ 22.6 billion for more than 1,000 programs in 150 countries (as of 1 December 2011). To date, programs supported by the Global Fund are providing AIDS treatment for 3.3 million people, anti-tuberculosis treatment for 8.6 million people and 230 million insecticide-treated nets for the prevention of malaria.
The Global Fund works in close collaboration with other bilateral and multilateral organizations to supplement existing efforts in dealing with the three diseases.
Our organizational culture is based on the values and norms we aspire to as individuals and as a team - Integrity, respect, passion, collaboration, innovation and effectiveness. They influence how we work and address issues internally, as well as how we work with partners outside the organization. We plan to do even better in 2012. For our plans to become reality, we need people who share our passion and commitment to work together; people who are “best in class” in their chosen field; and most importantly, people who want to make a difference to the lives of others.
