What our endorsers have to say

“When I joined the Global Fund, I avidly read back issues of the GFO to get me up to speed on what is an incredibly complex organisation. I have always found the GFO clear, honest, and saying the things that many of the staff in the Fund wish we had the space (or courage) to say.”

​– Ade Fakoya, Senior Specialist HIV, Global Fund

Adam Smith

"Global Fund Observer is lucid, intelligent and definitive. It makes a huge contribution to everyone's understanding of the processes and realities of the Global Fund."

– Stephen Lewis, former Special Envoy for HIV/AIDS in Africa of the UN Secretary-General

Adam Smith

"Congratulations for your work on watchdogging, it will help all of us to deliver good results in Global Fund implementation of proposals."
