Fifth GAVI Board Meeting, 21-22 June 2001, London, England

June 2001

The Global AIDS and Health Fund

DISCUSSION

The Board supports the creation of a Global AIDS and Health Fund which is both additional and complementary to existing development assistance;

The importance of GAVI is recognized by donors; the two Funds should not be viewed as an either/or prospect for funding but as complementary efforts that both need support to address critical health needs.

DECISIONS

The Board:

• recognised that the GAVI experience and lessons learned could prove helpful to the AIDS and Health Fund developers; the Executive Secretary may therefore assist in their process, if requested.
