Findings
  1. The U.S. is also the single largest donor to the Global Fund, but contributions to the Global Fund are in turn used by the Global Fund to support HIV, TB, and malaria efforts. U.S. funding totals for malaria, therefore, do not include contributions to the Global Fund. See Methodology for additional information.

  2. Decreased funding in 2011 was primarily due to a decline in disbursements from the Global Fund.

  3. The U.K. reported malaria funding to the OECD DAC for the first time in 2007.

  4. Malaria R&D funding data are presented in nominal dollars and were obtained from Policy Cures through a special data request. Data presented in Policy Cures’ G-FINDER Report and online database are in real dollars and therefore, will not match data presented in this report.

  6. These figures are based on Global Fund planned allocations but actual disbursement rates may vary and are also dependent on recipient country allocation decisions. For example, as of December 4, the Global Fund had disbursed US$714 million for malaria efforts for the year, below the planning annual average of $1.4 billion.

  7. For the U.S., 2014 amounts are final funding levels, 2015 is based on the President’s Budget Request, and 2016 assumes the same level of funding as 2015.
