The Board of the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria was expected to choose a new executive director from a field of three finalists on Monday but, instead, it decided to restart the search process.
"The Board is committed to a process that adheres to the highest possible standards, and is fair, transparent, merit-based, and conducted with due diligence and professionalism," Norbert Hauser, the chair of the board, said in a statement released Monday.
The board was unable to choose a new executive director “due to issues encountered in the recruitment process,” according to the statement.
