Since IFFIm began in 2006, IFFIm funding has allowed GAVI to nearly double its expenditures in health programmes.

Since its launch in 2006, IFFIm has raised more than US $ 3 billion by tapping the capital markets and has effectively doubled the funds available for GAVI ’ s immunisation programmes.

GAVI ’ s support has already made a significant impact and new opportunities exist to prevent additional diseases.

International non-governmental organization PATH, the WHO, the U. S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and the GAVI Alliance are working to bring rotavirus vaccines to developing countries, where children face the greatest burden.

She served on the board of The GAVI Fund, which helps to provide vaccines to developing countries.

IFFIm sells bonds on the capital markets to raise funds for the GAVI Alliance, a public-private partnership which works to save children ’ s lives and protect people ’ s health by increasing access to vaccination in developing countries.

IFFIm provides certainty of funding for both GAVI and recipient countries, aiding long-term planning and short-term needs.

Julian Lob-Levyt, executive secretary of the GAVI Alliance, noted that an early version of pneumococcal vaccine is being widely used in developed countries with striking success in preventing disease.

The GAVI Alliance is a public-private global health partnership committed to saving children ’ s lives and protecting people ’ s health by increasing access to immunisation in poor countries.

GAVI ’ s co-financing policy requires that recipient countries contribute towards the cost of the vaccines.

GAVI ’ s Advance Market Commitment ( AMC ) is a new approach to public health funding designed to stimulate the development and manufacture of affordable vaccines tailored to the needs of developing countries.

The report noted that not only do IFFIm-funded investments generate “ extremely good returns ,” but also that it likely helped GAVI save more than 2. 1 million lives.

Between now and 2015, GAVI can accelerate access to new vaccines that will save a further four million lives.

IFFIm financed more than 90 % of the guaranteed payment to UNICEF for initial doses of a pentavalent vaccine which immunises against five infectious diseases: diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, haemophilus influenzae type B ( Hib ) and hepatitis B. GAVI could not have made that commitment and upfront cash payment without IFFIm.

In GAVI ’ s first decade, 288 million children have been immunised against lifethreatening diseases including diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis ( whooping cough ), hepatitis B, Hib and yellow fever, and more than five million future deaths have been prevented ( 2010 WHO estimation ).

Through its Accelerated Vaccine Introduction initiative and contingent on increased donor support, GAVI plans to roll out new vaccines against the leading causes of pneumonia and infant diarrhoea – diseases that together take the lives of nearly three million children under five each year.

Her Majesty Queen Rania, a member of the board of the GAVI Fund, pointed out that in the poorest regions of the world, two to three million children die of preventable diseases every year.

In March 2010, the first supply agreements for the AMC against pneumococcal disease were signed by GAVI and two pharmaceutical companies.

In addition, IFFIm helped GAVI fund breakthrough vaccines quickly and securely.

The GAVI Alliance was launched in 2000, at a time when the distribution of vaccines to children in the poorest parts of the world had begun to falter.

GAVI ’ s ability to secure predictable long-term funding and prompt demand for vaccines positively shapes markets.

GAVI is now entering its second phase of funding, which extends through 2014.

He is 5th Vice President of the Norwegian Parliament and Chair of the Board of the GAVI Alliance.

The GAVI Alliance and the World Bank will be responsible for supporting the programmatic and financial functions of the AMC.

Countries that are eligible for GAVI support actively take the lead.

GAVI is a trailblazer in developing innovative methods to finance health programmes.
