Global Fund Replenishment Prep-Session

Thu 06th Nov 2025
to Tue 16th Sep 2025

CAGEAD HQ, Bamenda

Every few years, the Global Fund holds a major conference, known as a "replenishment," where governments and private donors pledge money for the next cycle of funding. This is the single most important event in the Global Fund's calendar. Our prep-session is designed to get you ready to influence this crucial process. We will give you a clear, easy-to-understand overview of what the replenishment is, why it matters, and how you can get involved. We will cover the key financial targets and the specific advocacy asks that youth advocates are making.

The session will be interactive, allowing you to participate in mock discussions and role-playing exercises. We will teach you how to craft compelling messages and practice your talking points so you can confidently engage with donors and policymakers. The goal is to make sure that the youth perspective—highlighting the need for more funding, youth-friendly services, and community-led programs—is front and center during the official replenishment. We want to empower you to become an effective advocate who can influence funding decisions that will affect millions of lives.

CAGEAD is hosting this event to ensure that the next generation of leaders is well-informed and well-prepared. We will provide a comprehensive toolkit with talking points, facts, and figures that you can use during your own advocacy efforts. The session will be held in Yaoundé, and we are working to ensure that it is accessible to all young people who want to make a difference. Attending this event is a direct investment in your ability to shape the future of global health.
