The Eastern Africa National Networks of AIDS and Health Service Organizations (EANNASO) is a regional network of Civil Society (CS) and Community Groups (CG) working towards the elimination of HIV/AIDS, Tuberculosis, Malaria, and other associated health challenges in Eastern, Anglophone, and Lusophone Africa regions. EANNASO has expanded its focus to include broader health issues, including sexual reproductive health (SRH), climate change, and pandemic preparedness and response (PPR).
On 16 May 2025, the Global Fund Secretariat issued guidance on grant adaptation measures for Grant Cycle 7 (GC7) to safeguard the continuity of life-saving programs amid financial uncertainty.
This reprioritization and revision process began with the Secretariat’s announcement of reduced funding allocations on 30 June 2025, after which countries were tasked with reviewing their grants and deciding which activities would be cut, modified, maintained, or transitioned to other funding sources, such as domestic budgets.
To protect core, life-saving, and essential services within GC7 grants, the Secretariat provided detailed guidance and an operational note to support countries in making these critical decisions.
