THE GLOBAL FUND AND CIVIL SOCIETY ORGANIZATIONS SAVE THE LIVES OF 40.000 VENEZUELANS
Venezuela was not eligible for the Global Fund funding because it was a high-income country with a low disease burden. However, the Global Fund Board made an exception and donated resources to support the people of Venezuela. With a modest and intelligent investment– and in partnership with civil society– the Global Fund is saving the lives of over 40.000 people living with HIV in Venezuela.
