Grant Details, Analysis and Evaluation
Sudan Global Fund Round 3 HIV/AIDS Grant (SUD-305-G04-H)
as of 31 August 2010

The information provided here is based on data available from the Global Fund website. Based on that data, we provide a comparative evaluation of how each grant performed during its first 2 years (Phase 1). Performance information for later years is also provided but has not been evaluated. Aidspan is currently developing a more comprehensive evaluation methodology which will provide comparative analyses of grant performance during every phase: Phase 1 (Years 1-2), Phase 2 (Years 3-5) and Rolling Continuation Channel (RCC) covering subsequent years.

All money amounts are in US dollars. Grants are rated by Aidspan according to the following color-coded scheme:
A: On or ahead of schedule
B: Up to 3 months behind
C: 3 to 6 months behind
D: Over 6 months behind
N: Not rated

The Global Fund bears no responsibility for this analysis. The computation of months ahead of or behind schedule was conducted by Aidspan using disbursement data obtained from the Global Fund's website. The Expected Disbursements reflect the Global Fund's standardized assumptions of what percentage of the grant is disbursed each three months. See Aidspan's Evaluation Methodology for more information.
