Doha - In an implementation of the directives of HH the Amir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al-Thani, the Qatar Fund for Development (QFFD) signs a 3 year Multi-Year Contribution Agreement with the Global Fund in the amount of USD 50 Million.
In its statement issued today, QFFD said that the partnership aims to end the epidemics of AIDS, tuberculosis, and malaria by 2030 thereby contributing to the Sustainable Development Goal 3: Ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all at all ages.
The statement added that the new Multi-Year Contribution Agreement will further strengthen the partnership established in 2017 between QFFD and the Global Fund where QFFD made a contribution of USD 10 million for a first funding cycle.
