CCM Core Functions

CCM Rwanda fulfills its core functions as defined by the Global Fund's requirements for Country Coordinating Mechanisms. These functions form the foundation of Rwanda's coordinated national health response.

1. Funding Request Development

The CCM leads the development of funding requests submitted to the Global Fund, ensuring proposals are grounded in national health priorities, epidemiological evidence, and stakeholder consultations. This includes coordinating technical working groups for HIV, TB, and Malaria program design.

2. Principal Recipient Selection

Since the PR is pre-designated as the Ministry of Health; CCM-RW selects qualified organization(s) to implement Global Fund grants as sub recipients (SRs) based on transparent and inclusive processes.

3. Grant Oversight

Through its Oversight Committee, the CCM monitors PR performance against agreed targets, reviews programmatic and financial reports, and conducts field oversight visits.

4. Stakeholder Coordination

The CCM serves as the national platform for coordinating all stakeholders involved in Rwanda's Global Fund-supported programs from government ministries to civil society organizations, development partners, and affected communities.

5. Inclusive Governance

The CCM ensures that all constituencies — including people living with HIV, TB, and Malaria — have a meaningful voice in decisions affecting program design and implementation. This includes maintaining constituency representation requirements and supporting non-government member participation.
