The Aidspan Guide to Applications under the Global Fund’s Transitional Funding Mechanism is now available.

The guide, written by David Garmaise and Jamie Uhrig, is one of over 20 free Aidspan publications written for those applying for, implementing or supporting grants from the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria.

The purpose of “The Aidspan Guide to Applications under the Global Fund‟s Transitional Funding Mechanism” is to provide guidance to coordinating mechanisms and other organisations applying for funding under the Transitional Funding Mechanism (TFM).

The guide does not tell applicants what they should say in their proposals. Rather, it explains questions on the proposal form that may not be entirely clear. In addition, the guide occasionally provides examples of how similar questions were answered in past rounds of funding. These examples are intended to show applicants how their responses can be structured and what items need to be included to ensure a full response.
