UNITAID Grants
UNITAID’s Executive Board has committed funding of US $14.9 million to the Stop TB Partnership's Global Drug Facility (GDF) to expand the Strategic Rotating Stockpile (SRS) for multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) medicines.The GDF stockpile aims to help halt the spread of MDR-TB by guaranteeing supply and improving delivery times of drugs. Countries will benefit from increased flexibility in drug supply as they take on the challenge of scaling up the management of MDR-TB. This support will be linked to the Global Fund
Rapid Response Mechanism and GDF aims to move the SRS programme towards longer-term funding sources and a new operating model.

The funding for GDF is one of a series of grants approved by the UNITAID board worth more than US $140 million in total. For more information, visit the UNITAID website.
