REMINDER: Global Fund Launches Round 9 on 1 October

The Global Fund will officially launch Round 9 in two weeks' time,

on 1 October, as previously reported in GFO Issue #93. The deadline

for applications will be 21 January 2009. The Fund says that the

proposal form and guidelines for Round 9 will be substantially

unchanged from Round 8. At the time of the launch, the Fund will

clarify what is involved in re-submitting a Round 8 proposal.

Because so little will change from Round 8, Aidspan, publisher of

GFO, is not planning to revise " The Aidspan Guide to Round 8

Applications to the Global Fund, " and thus advises potential

applicants to use the Round 8 guide for their Round 9 proposals.

" The Aidspan Guide to Round 8 Applications to the Global Fund " comes

in two volumes. " Volume 1: Getting a Head Start " provides

information and guidance to help potential applicants decide whether

or not to apply, and, if they decide to apply, to assist them with

the proposal development process (including the process of

soliciting in-country submissions for possible inclusion in the

national proposal). Volume 1 also discusses factors for potential

applicants to consider if they plan to submit a regional or non-CCM

proposal. Finally, Volume 1 includes an extensive analysis of the

strengths and weaknesses of proposals submitted in previous rounds

of funding (based on comments by the Technical Review Panel).

" Volume 2: The Applications Process and the Proposal Form " outlines

the applications process, describes what was new for Round 8, and

provides step-by-step guidance on how to fill out the Round 8

proposal form. Volume 2 is available in two versions, one for single-

country applicants and one for multi-country applicants.

Both volumes are available in English, French and Spanish at

www.aidspan.org/guides.

In preparing for Round 9, applicants may also want to use Aidspan's

documents for in-country submissions, released in December 2007 (see

announcement in GFO Issue #82). These documents, which are designed

to assist CCMs with the in-country submissions process, are

available in English, French, Spanish and Russian at

www.aidspan.org/aidspanpublications.
