About the Office of the Inspector General The Office of the Inspector General safeguards the assets, investments, reputation and sustainability of the Global Fund by ensuring that it takes the right action to defeat AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria. Through audits, investigations and consultancy work, it promotes good practice, reduces risk and reports fully and transparently on abuse.

Established in 2005, the Office of the Inspector General is an independent yet integral part of the Global Fund. It is accountable to the Board through its Audit and Ethics Committee and serves the interests of all Global Fund stakeholders. Its work conforms to the International Standards for the Professional Practice of Internal Auditing and the Uniform Guidelines for Investigations of the Conference of International Investigators.

The Global Fund believes that every dollar counts and has zero tolerance for fraud, corruption and waste. Through its whistle-blowing channels, the Office of the Inspector General encourages all to speak out to report fraud, abuse and human rights violations that prevent Global Fund resources from reaching those who need them.

Welcome

The Global Fund Office of the Inspector General (OIG) is delighted to host the 16th Conference of International Investigators in Montreux, Switzerland, from 30 September to 2 October 2015, preceded by two days of optional training courses.

Those we impactThe 16th Conference has an overarching theme: “Those we impact”. More than just a buzzword, “impact” is about the people whose lives we ultimately touch through our investigative work. Within the organizations that make up the Conference of International Investigators (CII), our investigations expose and mitigate fraud and corruption. They also help to ensure that funds are used properly and that the programs they finance have the greatest impact.

In 2000, the three pandemics of AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria were killing millions of people a year. At the Global Fund, an organization that disburses US$ 4 billion a year to prevent, treat and help eradicate the three diseases in over 125 countries, the impact of our investigative work can literally mean life or death. For example, stolen or diverted medicine means that a patient might not receive lifesaving treatment; bid rigging and kickbacks in a tender process can lead to waste and overpricing of basic commodities, reducing funds available for additional health products; discrimination and human rights violations can lead to a denial of basic health services for vulnerable and marginalized people.

Since it first met in 1999 in Rome, the annual CII has been an important event for investigators of international organizations. The conference serves as a much-needed forum to share information, exchange ideas and leading practices, forge new relationships and future collaborations, and to hear and learn from some of the industry’s leading experts on current issues.

Many people have contributed to make this conference happen. Firstly, we wish to acknowledge and thank the Audit and Ethics Committee of the Global Fund’s Board for its support of the OIG as well as all those at the Global Fund who have planned and organized the conference. We wish to thank the CII Secretariat for its support and guidance in helping us develop the program. We would also like to thank the European Anti-Fraud Office (OLAF) for its continued financial support and for providing a cadre of experts and instructors for the two-day pre-conference training. And thanks also go to the Nordic Investment Bank for its financial support.

Wishing you a productive and enjoyable conference,

Katie Hodson Head of Investigations at the OIG and Conference Chair with the Global Fund OIG Conference Team

The Franz-Hermann Brüner Memorial lectureThe Honorable MIcHAEl KIRby

Michael Kirby was Australia’s longest serving judge when he retired from the High Court of Australia on 2 February 2009.

He was first appointed in 1975 as a Deputy President of the Australian Conciliation & Arbitration Commission. Soon after, he was seconded as inaugural Chairman of the Australian Law Reform Commission (1975-1984). Later, he was appointed a Judge of the Federal Court of Australia, then President of the New South Wales Court of Appeal and, concurrently, President of the Court of Appeal of Solomon Islands. His appointment to the High Court of Australia came in 1996 and he served thirteen years. In later years, he was Acting Chief Justice of Australia twice.

Franz-Hermann Brüner, who served as the first Director-General of the European Anti-Fraud Office (OLAF) from 2000 to 2009, was the first Chairman of the Conference of International Investigators and its Secretariat. Throughout his extraordinary career, Franz-Hermann Brüner was committed to harnessing the community of international organizations to globalize the fight against fraud and corruption. He supported the creation of a forum of international investigators to enhance the understanding of each other’s challenges and methods. Forging partnerships with other investigative offices and exploring ways to work collaboratively was a key part of his working philosophy.

Franz-Hermann Bruner was instrumental in expanding the CII’s influence in its early years, increasing the number and type of participating organizations and using the CII as a forum to raise the bar on the work of all participating integrity offices. Since his death in 2010, prominent or distinguished industry professionals, scholars or dignitaries have been invited to present the Franz-Hermann Brüner Memorial Lecture on the conference’s opening day. The lectures are designed to recognize Franz-Hermann Brüner’s role in establishing the CII and to honor his achievements and use of investigations as a deterrent to combat fraud and corruption. They also highlight the role of international organizations today in combating fraud and corruption around the world as well as in advancing anti-corruption objectives to which Franz-Hermann Brüner was deeply committed.

About the Global FundThe Global Fund is a 21st-century organization designed to accelerate the end of AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria as epidemics.

Founded in 2002, the Global Fund is a partnership between governments, civil society, the private sector and people affected by the diseases. The Global Fund raises and invests nearly US$4 billion a year to support programs run by local experts in countries and communities most in need.

We operate with three core principles: partnership, country ownership and performance-based funding. All partners need to take part in decision-making. People actually implementing grants know the best way to fight disease in their country, and come up with the most effective solutions. Funding should be provided where it can achieve the best results. By challenging barriers and embracing innovative approaches, we strive for maximum impact.

Working together, we have saved millions of lives and provided prevention, treatment and care services to hundreds of millions of people, helping to revitalize entire communities, strengthen local health systems and improve economies.

Global Fund staff, all based in Geneva, Switzerland, come from all professional backgrounds and from more than 100 different countries, united in their dedication to the defeat of these epidemics.

The Chatham House rule will apply to the conference:When a meeting, or part thereof, is held under the Chatham House Rule, participants are free to use the information received, but neither the identity nor the affiliation of the speaker(s), nor that of any other participant, may be revealed.
