How We Work

As an Institute, we align our work to global technical strategies and agendas, including the World Health Organization (WHO) Neglected Tropical Diseases (NTD) Roadmap, the WHO Global Technical Strategy on malaria, the Global Polio Eradication Initiative, and the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals.

We work in partnership with country-level actors and ministries of health to help accelerate progress towards disease elimination and eradication.

BUILD ON COUNTRY OWNERSHIP AND LOCAL SOLUTIONS

GLIDE is grounded in country realities and respect for the local context, capacities, knowledge, and leadership. It aims to amplify lessons learned from the countries with which it engages, and takes a panoramic view to help countries share experiences, coordinate, and learn across contexts to accelerate progress towards elimination goals.

build

PROMOTE INTEGRATED AND HEALTH SYSTEMS APPROACHES

We believe that sustainable solutions require strong partnerships across public, private, international, and domestic actors focusing on cross-border, cross-sectoral, and cross-disease action. GLIDE will work through existing health systems rather than duplicating them, creating silos, and taking or diverting resources from existing programmes.

SUSTAIN PROGRESS

GLIDE is not about “quick fixes.” We seek results that build on past progress and can be sustained for the long-term.

ENGAGE CATALYTICALLY

GLIDE seeks to invest strategically, seizing opportunities and bridging gaps by accelerating thinking and action to help achieve elimination targets. GLIDE will guard against top-down development and support coordinated efforts.
