The Secretariat

The CCM Secretariat supports the CCM with the planning and organization of CCM meeting logistics, agendas, and procedures. The CCM Secretariat maintains a database of CCM Members, Alternate Members and Constituency Focal Points including official contact information to coordinate and communicate with the constituencies before, during and after CCM sessions. 

The CCM Secretariat monitors and ensures compliance with the list of registered participants at each CCM meeting. It also ensures CCM Members and Alternate Members participating in a CCM meeting have updated declarations of Conflict of Interest (COI) while mitigating any potential or actual conflicts of interest prior to the start of the CCM meeting. 

The effective functioning of the standing committees and ad-hoc committees of the CCM is the responsibility of the Secretariat. It ensures the committees are adequately supported to carry out their duties as assigned by the CCM. The Secretariat also provides overarching guidance and support to the grant implementers, national programmes and all stakeholders as it relates to the Global Fund grant activities in Nigeria.
