e-Forum 2008 survey

Español Français Русский

The e-Forum 2008 has come to an end and we wish to thank the 445 participants who filled out the evaluation survey. You can view the results here (PDF - 83 kB).

Here's a brief look at some figures and a comparison with the 2006 e-Forum:

Overall participation more than doubled this year compared to 2006
Out of 3500 registered members (versus 1350 in 2006), close to 500 people actively participated in the discussions (300 in 2006)
Those 500 participants produced more than 2000 contributions (850 in 2006)
Contributions came from 112 countries (76 countries in 2006)
The most popular discussions dealt with the gender strategy of the Global Fund and the oversight and coordination of Global Fund supported programs. These discussions lead to more than 260 contributions.
The contributions were generally focused, with about two thirds leading to concrete recommendations.
Participation by women saw a slight increase compared to 2006 but remained low (30% on average). Their participation varied widely by language, from 15% in the French forum to 50% in the Spanish forum. Participation by region (men and women) was as follows:
- 45% from Sub-Saharan Africa
- 15% from Latin America and the Carribean
- 14% from South Asia
- 9% from Eastern Europe and Central Asia
- 8% from the Middle-East and Northern Africa
- 2% from East Asia and the Pacific
- 7% from elsewhere (mainly North America and Western Europe)
More than half of the messages were posted in English (54%), followed by French (22%), Spanish (15%) and Russian (9%).

The facilitation team is now drafting the final e-Forum report which will summarize the participants’ recommendations and feed into the Partnership Forum discussions to be held in Dakar in December. This report will be available for downloading on this site in the second half of November.

Thanks to all for having made the e-Forum 2008 such an inclusive and respectful place to exchange ideas and to help saving lives against HIV/AIDS, TB and malaria.

To,

CCM-FORUM

Received reminder.I am sending e-FORUM discussion 2008 for

development of possible mechanism & identification of problem

during grant implementation.This discussion is based upon

product concept including product simplicity,promotional mix,

optimum utilization,integration of independent variable&

social adaptability of goods/services in less GNP& developing

countries.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

The GF Secretariat could provide vital mechanism for (Community-

System Strengthening - Affected population,grassroot solution,

social factors i.e. labour migration,unhygienic conditions,

literacy level,gender disparity factors attributed specific

diseases & integrated approaches.

The GF Secretariat should develop appropriate measures with

inclusion of strategic intervention to overcome oversight problems

in implementation of GF process.

In developing Asian & African countries, product mix,projects &

grants relationship,mobilizing resources are vital issues in

implementation of GF process.In the above process,GF Secretariat

should develop specific product based economic model& procurement

of effective,less expansive products for fulfill socio-economic

expectation of countries.For formation of economic model,GF Secretariat could interact with GF stakeholders in the form of

Public,Private,Govt,economical& financial institutions,research&

development for effective implementation of GF process.

These institutions should ensure product's simplicity,product mix,

promotional mix,hedging,optimum utilization,& integration of

independent variable/participant/channels for mobilization of

resources& grant consolidation.GF Secretariat could develop business

models with inclusion of expertise variable & organisation e.g.

Industry,sales,enterprize resources planning,medical attentive

services. Discussion , requirement of an organisation could give

specific priority of GF Secretariat for mobilization of resources,

integrated approaches& grant making process.
