  1. CSAT aims to help civil society organizations with project proposals and implementation – through brokering technical support and coordinating advocacy nationally, regionally and globally. NOT a provider of technical support (TS)

  2. CSAT Coordination CSAT will operate through a Global Coordinator and six Regional Coordinators, one in each of the following regions: • Middle East and North Africa; • East & South Africa; • West & Central Africa; • Asia-Pacific; • Latin America & the Caribbean; and • Eastern Europe & Central Asia.

  3. CSAT Priorities • Strengthen the performance of civil society principal recipients and sub-recipients; • Increase the number and quality of Global Fund proposals submitted by civil society organizations; • Improve the quality and availability of technical support for civil society organizations.

  4. Common Challenges (GF) • Lack of capacity for effective proposal development to access funding. • Lack of adequately trained project managers to implement programs. • Inadequate management, finance and reporting capacity. • Limited technical capacity in hard-to-reach areas. • Lack of comprehensive representation of all stakeholders on CCMs. • Delays in getting funding to civil society organizations serving as sub-recipients.

  5. CSAT can help to: • Identify civil society TS needs related to Global Fund project implementation. - consultations, analysis, and database • Identify and locate appropriate TS providers - on-line registration for TS providers and CBOs needing support. • Coordinate civil society input into the Global Implementation Support Team (GIST), Global Fund Secretariat, and UNITAID - discussion forum for CSAT stakeholders.

  6. CSAT can help to: • Identify possible sources of funding for additional TS - USAID consortia, other bi-laterals, UNAIDS (PAF and TSFs) • Advocate among providers for expanded availability of more appropriate technical support. • Promote the inclusion of marginalized groups in all aspects of Global Fund grants: from proposal development to implementation.
