In addition, GbcHealth serves as the focal point for the private sector delegation to the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria ('GFATM') and the Secretariat for the Corporate Alliance for Malaria in Africa ('CAMA'). In a typical year, GbcHealth will lead or participate in some or all of the following activities: development of health-related corporate workplace policies; identifying and brokering public-private partnerships between businesses, governments, and communities; fostering private sector collaboration with the UN and its global development priorities; hosting corporate dialogue and strategy sessions; researching and publicizing case studies and best practices; sharing status of public health issues in the global business community and stimulating dialogue through expert-driven event panels, teleconferences, and publications; providing global forums for thought leaders in business to interact and generate ideas and solutions.

GbcHealth provides programs as described below: Focal Point Services and Coordination As focal point to private sector steering committee roles, GbcHealth provides advocacy, content, and coordination support for private sector input into key global health institutions. In fulfilling each of these roles, GbcHealth brings a wide range of skills in the areas of strategy, policy, relationship management, and coordination. In summary: GbcHealth has served as focal point to the Global Fund Board's Private Sector Delegation ('PSD') since 2006, managing and facilitating engagements with and between PSD member companies and the Fund's Board, committees, and Secretariat. PSD has a tiered membership structure and is coordinated by GbcHealth.

GbcHealth serves as CAMA Secretariat, spearheading and coordinating CAMA initiatives, mobilizing private sector strategy and action on malaria in the most endemic regions by streamlining efforts across industry sectors and countries. CAMA is a coalition of companies from various industries partnering to meet the goal of malaria elimination in Africa through knowledge-sharing and in-country collective action. Demographic Dividend: Improving Health for Women and Youth Since 2017, GbcHealth has partnered with UNFPA to encourage multi-sector partnerships in Africa focusing on health, empowerment, education, and employment to reduce vulnerability and support young people to reach their full potential. Specifically, the collaboration aims to support the Sahel Women's Empowerment and Demographic Dividend (SWEDD) project, a regional initiative supported by the World Bank, UNFPA, and the West Africa Health Organization. The SWEDD project has three main components: (1) generate demand for reproductive, maternal, neonatal, child health, and nutrition services and products; (2) strengthen the regional availability of commodities and qualified health workers; and (3) strengthen advocacy and promote policy development. GbcHealth works with companies to encourage participation in roundtables with other leaders; explore and develop partnerships to replicate, expand and scale projects; and utilize private sector to address bottlenecks in project design and implementation. Web-based and Print Communications Vehicles GbcHealth's website, email communications, social media activity, and printed materials are vital resources for companies. The information disseminated by GbcHealth via these avenues provides companies with the tools and knowledge needed to take an active role in making a difference in global health. It supports companies in their efforts to understand and implement best practices. Throughout the year, GbcHealth released reference materials, including newsletters, case studies of company programs, implementation guides, and papers on a diverse range of subjects, from roundtable reports to policy issues. Issue-driven Workshops, Events, and Teleconferences GbcHealth facilitates knowledge, sharing, and joint planning through regional and global events, working groups, round-tables & teleconferences.

These forums may include diverse constituents, including other NGOs, government and multilateral partners, in addition to the business community, who support discussion and concept development by lending their perspectives. In 2018, thematic areas of focus included communicable diseases, Africa's health and finance, women, girls and adolescent health in the Sahel region and beyond, gender-based violence, elimination of malaria, and advancing universal health coverage. Major workshops and events included private sector forums to accelerate investments in and to drive corporate action to eliminate malaria in Africa, high-level dialogue on Africa's health and finance during the United Nations General Assembly, events in honor of World Malaria, TB and HIV Days, and high-level forum on partnerships to support the demographic dividend in Abidjan, among others.
