Understanding how and why Georgia was (or was not) able to sustain coverage with the selected health interventions after transition and identify the enablers and barriers to this. To achieve this objective following research questions were defined:
Six country case studies examining how governments have responded (or not) to reductions in donor funding through changes in the service delivery architecture, health financing arrangements, information systems, and governance arrangements, and how these changes have or have not influenced whether effective coverage of priority interventions previously funded by donors is sustained or not.

In June 2018 CIF initiated a new project with the financial support of The Global Fund.

Since May 2018 Curatio International Foundation implements a technical assistance for the Philippines to prepare Transition and Sustainability Plan for HIV program. The overall goal of the given assignment is to support the Department of Health and the Philippine National AIDS Council to develop the Transition and Financial Sustainability Plan based on the evaluation of remaining steps required to strengthen transition preparedness. The project is fulfilled in June 2018.
The assignment will last 10 months and aims to assess positive and negative implications of The Global Fund’s (TGF) Sustainability, Transition and Co-Financing Policy (STCP) that may have on TB commodity procurement practices on a country level in EECA region.
