OVERVIEW

Download Section [PDF]

The purpose of the ‘grant closure’ process is ensuring the orderly closure of
Global Fund grants managed by UNDP Country Offices (COs) that are acting as
interim Principal Recipient (PR) to Global Fund grants. The Global Fund and UNDP
have agreed at the corporate level on the approach to closing UNDP-managed
Global Fund grants, with modified guidance and templates to be used specifically
for UNDP-managed grants. The main guiding document is the Global Fund
Notification Letter ‘Guidance on Grant Closure’.

The closure process typically begins six to nine months prior to the end of the
implementation period. It is prompted when the CO receives the Global Fund
Notification Letter “Guidance for Grant Closure’ and begins with the submission
of a close-out plan and budget. The grant’s final funding decision is approved
at the same time as the close-out plan. Following the last disbursement, the
grant is placed in financial closure. Once all closure documentation has been
submitted, the grant is placed in final administrative closure and is
de-activated from all Global Fund systems.

The guidance provided in this section of the Manual reflects Global Fund
policies and procedures. Please refer to the Operational Policy Note (OPN) on
Grant Closures in the Global Fund Operational Policy Manual for further
guidance.

UNDP CO serving as interim PR should also ensure that the relevant requirements
of the UNDP Programme and Operations Policies and Procedures (POPP) are met,
including the completion of the Final Project Review and Lessons Learned Report.
