UNITAID also encourages innovation to ensure medicines are available in formulations and combinations that are best suited to the target populations and treatment conditions in developing countries.

The Civil Society Delegations to the UNITAID Board are the two seats representing Communities affected by HIV and AIDS, TB or malaria, and NGOs involved in the global fight against these diseases on the executive Board of UNITAID. The Communities and NGOs board members choose to work together a great deal, but constitute two distinct delegations, each with its own voice and strengths.
The Civil Society Delegations' Contact Group is the for civil society representatives interested in following key issues at UNITAID and the activities of the civil society board members. Members of the Contact Group receive regular updates on the activities of the Civil Society Delegations, are invited to attend teleconferences discussing key UNITAID issues, and have the opportunity to participate in document review processes and attend pre-Board meetings.
Full terms of reference for the Contact Group can be found at at https://docs.com/VLMA or upon request by emailing LZadeh@oxfam.org.uk.
