Global Fund

Jeff Erwin - owner of red jet films recently traveled to Rwanda, Ethiopia and Indonesia with David Evans on behalf of the United Nations Foundation to document how the Global Fund is helping in the fight against AIDS, tuberculosis and Malaria.

To date, this program has committed $19.3 billion US dollars in 144 countries to support large-scale prevention, treatment and care programs against the three diseases. Global Fund financing is enabling countries to strengthen health systems by, for example, making improvements to infrastructure and providing training to those who deliver services.
