Poor stock management contributed to theft of medicines purchased with Global Fund grants to C.A.R., OIG says
www.aidspan.org - "There were ongoing leakages of ACTs over a 17-month period. Medicines worth $198,334, bought using funds from two grants for malaria and TB/HIV, were lost due to theft and leakage in the Central African Republic (C.A.R.) over a period of 17 months, from January 2016 to May 2017. The losses primarily occurred at the central warehouse used by the principal recipient (PR), the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC).
The Secretariat alerted the Office of the Inspector General (OIG) to the losses. The OIG conducted an investigation in mid-2017; a report on its findings was published on 17 January."
