To improve coordination of funding, new financing mechanisms have been created to channel large funds to countries. The largest of these, the Global Fund, accounts for more than 60% of all external financing for tuberculosis control. However, the global financing architecture remains complex, and countries struggle to manage this. The Bangladeshi Government developed a sector wide-approach (SWAp) for financing and planning of the Health, Nutrition, and Population Sector Program that includes tuberculosis control. Funding is provided by the government and by a trust fund led by the World Bank that
pools financing from eight donors, with five providing financing through separate channels.
