Inclusion of Refugees and IDPs in Global Fund Grants

Malaria, HIV/AIDS and tuberculosis (TB) present unique risks to refugees and internally displaced persons (IDPs) around the world. High levels of mobility, poor living conditions and exposure to violence can all contribute to increased risk of exposure and decreased access to health services. As one of the largest financiers of global health programs, The Global Fund to Fight AIDS, TB and Malaria is a vital source of support to ensure refugees and IDPs have access to quality disease prevention, treatment and care services. The United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) and the United Nations Foundation performed a review of how refugees and IDPs were included in Global Fund applications between 2002-2019. Global results and downloadable scorecards for each eligible country can be found below.
