The Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria is recruiting experts to serve on the Technical Review Panel (TRP).

The Global Fund was created to finance, attract, manage and disburse additional resources to make a sustainable and significant contribution to mitigate the impact caused by HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria in countries in need, and contributing to poverty reduction. The TRP, which has 26 members, plays a crucial role in reviewing proposals submitted to the Global Fund and ensuring that those funded are of high quality.

Individuals with expert technical knowledge and extensive experience in one of the following are sought:

  • HIV/AIDS
  • Tuberculosis
  • Malaria
  • Cross cutting issues (such as institutional and governance issues, macro-economics in a health section context)

The current term of appointment is four rounds of proposals. TRP members must be available for the two week TRP meetings in Geneva every 12 months. In addition TRP members need to be accessible by email for up to 6 months for the clarification process for the proposals approved by the Board. Fluency in English is required as this is the working language of the TRP.

A transparent criteria-based selection process will be followed which seeks to achive a significant proportion of members from each of the WHO regions, representation from public and private sectors and civil society, including a qualified member from the Persons Living with AIDS, Tuberculosis and/or Malaria community. A balanced gender representation is sought.

Applicants with strong experience from private sector are strongly encouraged. The private sector experience need not be limited to the pharmaceutical industry: experience in managing private health systems or health care in the developing world would be very useful.

Individuals with expertise in HIV/AIDS and/or cross cutting issues, who also have specific nutritional expertise are also encouraged to apply.

Moreover, shortlisted candidates will be used as the source for new TRP members for the next two rounds.
