If you look at the results achieved by the Global Fund and the challenges ahead, it's very clear that we collectively as a partnership have achieved great results in saving lives but we haven't achieved enough in terms of reducing the incidence rates across the three diseases. This speaks very much to your point about the importance of prevention.
We do invest a lot in prevention. The way we do it varies country to country because we are country-driven. We work according to the needs and the capacity of a particular country, so it varies accordingly. For example, for malaria, most of our investment is actually to provide insecticide-treated bed nets, which is essentially prevention.
To go back to HIV, we have been led to very much diversify the way we operate, because in order to prevent new infections among adolescents and young women, for example, it's not a matter of biomedical intervention. It has to do so much with human rights barriers, gender inequalities, poverty, dropping out of school and so many structural issues that have taken the Global Fund a bit out of its traditional territory.
This is why we have new partnerships, in order to make those linkages with education in particular to the point that we literally provide cash to young girls so that they don't need to drop out of school to work outside school and put themselves in a more vulnerable situation and, therefore, be much more at risk of contracting HIV. That's a long way from biomedical interventions, but this is what needs to be done. There's a lot going on in that area.
The other thing that I would like to highlight is that one of the specificities, one of the unique characteristics, of the Global Fund is that we have the communities living with the diseases and the civil society actors inside our governance, at a global level but also in countries, which allows us really to listen to and take into account and respond to the needs of those communities. This is where the smartest prevention approaches can be designed, listening to how it works and how you take into account the characteristics of the particular communities. I think this is also very important to the success.
