 The **COVID-19 Solidarity Response Fund (SRF)** was an early initiative to fund the [[World Health Organization]]'s [[COVID-19]] response, including to "suppress transmission, reduce exposure, counter [[misinformation]], protect the vulnerable, reduce mortality and morbidity and accelerate equitable access to new [[COVID-19]] tools."((//COVID-19 Solidarity Response Fund for WHO.// (2021, August 22). Wayback Machine; WHO Foundation. https://web.archive.org/web/20210822142645/https://covid19responsefund.org/))
 Leadership for the fund was supported by the [[WHO Foundation]], the [[United Nations Foundation]] and the [[Swiss Philanthropy Foundation]], and contributed to by many partners.
+===== History =====
+In early 2020, the [[World Health Organization]] contacted the [[United Nations Foundation]] to "help build momentum and support for its role in leading and coordinating global efforts to prevent, detect, and respond." Just over two weeks later, the COVID-19 Solidarity Response Fund was launched.((//The COVID-19 Solidarity Response Fund.// United Nations Foundation.

+In March 2021, the United Nations Foundation transferred control of the fund over to the newly-created [[WHO Foundation]].((//The COVID-19 Solidarity Response Fund.// United Nations Foundation.
