Human Rights as a Key Part of the Next Strategic Plan of the Global Fund to Fight HIV/AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria

This discussion paper highlights why human rights should represent a key part of the next strategic plan of the Global Fund to Fight HIV/AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria, outlines some current Global Fund initiatives that support human rights, and identifies opportunities for strategically enhancing human rights and health outcomes. It suggests that a new strategic plan that clearly addresses how human rights should be incorporated at multiple levels into Global Fund programmes, processes and advocacy, including how the Fund should respond to alleged human rights violations at the country level, would make a tremendous contribution to delivering HIV, tuberculosis (TB) and malaria results as well as broader health and development goals.
