Abstract

Over the years, the Eastern Mediterranean Region (EMR) has faced a funding gap with respect to malaria, tuberculosis (TB), HIV, and vaccine-preventable diseases programmes. In the early 2000s, Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance (Gavi) and the Global Fund against AIDS, TB and Malaria (GFATM) became important financial contributors to these programmes. In 2000-2015, funding support from these two global health initiatives allowed progress. However, from 2015, coverage of interventions plateaued, and the region is now behind on the related Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) targets.
