Welcome to the CCM Forum, the first online discussion of its kind specifically focusing on issues relating to Country Coordinating Mechanisms (CCMs).
New to many countries and cultures, the CCM dynamics and mechanics of transparent and participatory programming can be confusing, complex, and challenging, but also exhilarating and socially transformative. The CCMs are a central piece of the Global Fund architecture embodying the principle of country-driven processes. They are responsible for
- coordinating the submission of grant proposals including requests for continued funding,
- selecting Principal Recipients
- providing oversight on all Global Fund grants and
- ensuring that there are linkages and consistency at the country level between Global Fund assistance and other development and health assistance programs ,
Over the next few months, discussions on a number of key CCM themes and weekly sub-themes will be developed and introduced by our facilitation team. A Topic Suggestions forum will also remain open to collect ideas on possible topics to be discussed in the CCM Forum.
Please join now and participate in either one of four languages: English, French, Spanish and Russian.
Thank you for your commitment to the fight against AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria and for your interest in the issues that affect Country Coordinating Mechanisms, The Global Fund and its stakeholders.
We look forward to your contributions.
The Facilitation Team
