Aidspan has been building its reputation for responsible reporting, commentary and analysis on all aspects of the Global Fund ecology since 2002. We have built an extensive global network of links. We try to always constructively comment on the extent to which the Global Fund's Board, Secretariat and grant implementers are being effective and are living up to the Fund's founding principles. We do this by publishing timely and relevant information and thoughtful, incisive analysis and; through facilitating critical debate; and promoting greater transparency, accountability, effectiveness and impact. One of our main channels to date has been the Global Fund Observer.

Aidspan aims to deliver the most pertinent content when it is most useful to its audiences through proactive research, prospective analysis, and prompt reporting.
