starting with Executive Committee consultation. Ne xt, he highlighted work to
be done on managing conflicts of interest, includin g clarifying the role of the
vaccine industry in GAVI?s governance. There had be en good dialogue and
proper management of conflicts to date, but the Boa rd needs an agreed-upon,

OPTIONS PAPER ? MAXIMISING OUTCOMES
The Board reiterated its request that the Secretariat
develop an options paper for the April 2012 Board
Retreat on how to maximise outcomes from GAVI
investments. The outline of the paper should be
circulated prior to the Retreat so there is common
ownersh ip of the subject. In terms of content, the paper
should cover broadly: where we are today (costs,
results); expected results in the future; options for
maximising outcomes (increased coverage, reaching
the last 20%, increased focus on countries, new
vacci nes, what additional resources can achieve,
identification of efficiencies, and possible investment in
Measles); and return on investment (in terms of
financial and economic impact on countries, as well as
the possibility of tracking data not just on morta lity but
also on morbidity).

Report to the
GAVI Alliance Board

Board -2012 -Mtg -2-Doc 02
12 -13 June 2012
Report of the Chief Executive Officer


5 June 2012
Dear Board Members,
Our Board meeting next week in Washington DC will occur around the
UNICEF/USAID Child Survival Call to Action . As you may recall, this special event
started out as an immunisation meeting around the one year anniversary of the GAVI
pledging conference, but now is much broader. We will of course attempt to use the
opportunity to highlight the important role of i mmunisation in preventing child illness
and deaths and have joined with the UN Foundation to hold a side event to celebrate
the anniversary of the pledging conference and all of the work that has gone on since
then.
Immediately after our productive Board retreat in Oslo, Dagfinn joined the
celebrations in Haiti of World Immunisation Week, and I visited Ghana for the
simultaneous launch of pneumococcal and rotavirus vaccines. Dagfinn was struck by
the intensification of a vaccination campaign against meas les, rubella and polio by
Haiti?s Ministry of Health as they also prepare for the roll out of pentavalent vaccine
later this year. For me, the excitement of people in Ghana was palpable; there?s
strong national commitment to achieve high and equitable cov erage. It was also
great to see so many members of the Alliance represented, all playing their part in
supporting Ghana in taking a giant step for its children. We will be carefully
evaluating the simultaneous introduction to see what we can learn, inclu ding whether
simultaneous introductions should be more widely encouraged.
This month, we also saw the adoption of the Global Vaccine Action Plan of the
Decade of Vaccines by the World Health Assembly. Discussion emphasised the
centrality of immunisation in publ ic health and health systems, and t he importance of
using existing mechanisms was highlighted by several member states, as was their
support for GAVI. The resolution called for progress to be assessed annually by the
WHO regional committees and th e WHA, which provides a useful opportunity to keep
vaccines as a top priority on the global health agenda.
Achieving our mission
The GAVI Progress Report for 2011 sets out what we achieved together in the first
year of the strategy period including a fu ller data picture than ever before. It shows
that we are generally on track to meet our ambitious goals ? although we will have to
work hard to overcome some of the vaccine cap acity issues discussed below.
Regardless, I think the report is a clear messag e of our shared obligation to deliver on
our existing commitments under the 2011 -2015 strategy ? our first priority. The
report has been sent to you and an animated electronic version will soon be available
on the website.

Section A: Overview

1. Purpose of the repor t

1.1 This paper informs the GAVI Alliance Board of the updated GAVI financial
forecast for 201 1-20 20 (Version 5.0F b).

2. Recommendations

2.1 For information only.

3. Executive summary

3.1 Th e updated GAVI financial forecast incorporates the latest demand estimates
and funding decisions taken to date . The level of resources reflects the results
of the June 2011 Pledging C onference for 2011 -2015 and an assumption for
projection purposes that direct contributions will continue at their 2012 -2014
level in subsequent years.

3.2 The financial forecast extends through 2020 to provide visibility to the Board of
GAVI?s long term expenditure and resource needs . N o funding decisions are
proposed in this paper .

3.3 The forecast indicates that while GAVI will have sufficient resources to cover
the needs of existing p rogrammes, additional resources will be needed to fully
meet estimated demand antic ipated for future programmes (through new
proposals expected in the future for currently supported vaccines ).

Section A: Overview

1. Purpose of the repor t

1.1 This report outlines an approach, recommended by the Audit and Finance
Committee , that would streamline Board and Committee processes for
programme funding decisions and accelerate the provision of cash support to
countries . It would help to optimis e the use of Board and Committee time and
reduce the number and/or duration of meetings .

2. Recommendations

2.1 The Audit and Finance Committee recommended that the GAVI Alliance Board
approve the revised GAVI Programme Funding Policy and adopt the following
resolution:

?The GAVI Alliance Board:
Approves the revised GAVI Programme Funding Policy attached as Append ix
A to the report on the Amendment to the Program me Funding Policy, Doc 06.?


3. Executive summary

3.1 On a number of occasion s in the course of each year, the Board or Executive
Committee (EC) and the Audit and Finance Committee (AFC) engage in
funding decisions for new proposals and the extension of previously approved
proposals that have been recommended for approval by the Independent
Review Committee (IRC) as well as adjustment of funding for existing
programmes. Such decisions will be considered in eight meetings in 2012,
twice as many as in 2011. A driver of this increase is the commencement in
2012 of the ?rolling? basis for approval of Health Systems Funding Platform
(HSFP) proposals, necessitating more frequen t approval meetings throughout
each year.

Section A: Overview
1 Purpose of the report
1.1 In line with the conclusions of the Board retreat in Oslo in April, 2012, the
Secretariat has developed options and a recommendation to provide additional
financial support for measles vaccination in GAVI eligible countries .
2 Recommendations
2.1 The Secretariat recommends that the Board:
(a) Reques ts the Secretariat to put in place the necessary arrangements in
accordance with Annex 2, Option 2 of Document 12 , for six large
countries at high risk of measles outbreaks ( Afghanistan, Chad, DR
Congo, Ethiopia, Nigeria, and Pakistan) to be able to receiv e GAVI
support for measles vaccines and operational costs until these countries
are forecasted to have implemented a measles -rubella (MR) campaign,
or by no later than 2017. This support would be provided in collaboration
with the Measles & Rubella Initiat ive (MR Initiative, formerly the Measles
Initiative).
(b) Approv es US $ 55 million to be made available to the MR Initiative
through the UN Foundation for use through 2017 for outbreaks and other
emerging needs requiring rapid response s, using the mechanism
described in Annex 2 , Option 1 .
(c) Requests the Secretariat - given the importance of measles as an
indication of country support for routine immuni sation ? to develop an
indicator for measles first dose routine vaccine coverage as part of the
achievement of GAVI?s 2011 -2015 Strategy for review by the Evaluation
Advisory Committee .

Eliane Furrer , Senior Programme Officer, Policy
Agenda item : 13
Category: For Decision
Strategic goal : SG1 - Underused and new vaccines

Section A: Overview

1. Purpose of the repor t

1.1 This report presents the recommended revisions to GAVI?s vaccine
introduction grant policy and GAVI?s operational support for campaigns,
including proposed levels of support and their financial implications. The
Programme and Policy Committee (PPC) endorsed the policy to the Board in
its meeting on 23 -24 April 2012.

2. Recommendations

2.1 The PPC recommends that the GAVI Alliance Board :

? Approve the GAVI vaccine introduction grant and operational support for
campaigns policy (the ? Policy ?), as described in Annex 1 of Doc 13;

? Request the Secretariat to make the necessary arrangements to ensure
that vaccine introductions and campaigns occurring on or after 1
September 2012 benefit from the Policy regardless of when th e country
proposal was approved .

3. Executive summary

3.1 Consultations concluded that v accine introduction grants have been
appreciated by countries and, when disbursed in a timely manner, are seen as
critical to successful vaccine introduction. Likewise, GAVI?s operationa l support
to campaigns has facilitated implementation of campaigns and contributed to
increased planning certainty for countries. However, f eedback from countries
and partners indicate that the current policies in place for these two types of
cash support h ave some major weaknesses , which the current revision
attempts to address .

Section A: Overview

1. Purpose of the repor t

1.1 This paper outlines a request for urgent funding for continui ng research studies
submitted by the Accelerated Vaccine Introduction Initiative Technical
Assistance Consortium (AVI -TAC).

2. Recommendations

2.1 The PPC reviewed four urgent special studies proposals from AVI -TAC and
recommended that the GAVI Alliance Board:

? Approve an amount of up to US$ 9.3 million for AVI -TAC to continue two
urgent pneumococcal studies and conduct two urgent rotavirus stud ies
over a three year period, through 2015 .

2.2 In connection with these four urgent studies, the PPC noted that consideration
should be given to the impact of the recent SAGE recommendation to loosen
the age restrictions for the delivery of rotavirus vaccines. To enable an
assessment of this impact , in parallel with the four urgent studies , and
following the PPC, the Secretariat recommends that the Board:

Approve , subject to the Secretariat receiving satisfactory peer review
reports, an amount of US$ 1.8 million for AVI -TAC to conduct a study to
monit or the impact of the SAGE recommendation on widening age
restrictions related to rotavirus vaccine delivery.

3. Executive summary

3.1 The AVI -TAC Special Studies sub -team has identified urgent priority needs
and submitted four study proposals to GAVI in February 2012. Because of the
imperative to address these mission critical questions in a timely manner,

vaccine rollout supported by the Accelerated Vaccine Introduction (AVI)
initiative and progress toward building a platform for future introductions.
2 Recommendations
2.1 For information only.
3 Executive Summary
3.1 Pneumococcal and rotavirus vaccines :
(a) In 2012, the GAVI Alliance marked the first simultaneous introduction of
both pneumococcal and rotavirus vaccines in Ghana in April. Nine
additional countries are expected to launch pneumococcal vaccines
(bringing the total to 10) and another seven are planned to introduce
rotavirus vaccines (bring ing the total to 8) this year. As reported to the
Board in Dhaka, however, unprecedented levels of demand for the two
vaccines that exceeds available supply will lead to delays in a number of
countries, at this point in time anticipated to affect mainly 2013.
(b) The supply situation remains dynamic. For example, since AVI?s recent
update to the Programme and Policy Committee (PPC) in April, one
manufacturer has confirmed the availability of additional quantities of
pneumococcal vaccines (PCV). Furthermore, the WHO has approved the
expanded use of the novel two dose PCV presentation with special
requirements. Both of these developments could ease supply constraints
for pneumococcal vaccines in 2012 and 2013 (see Annex 1 for details).

Section A: Overview

1. Purpose of the repor t

1.1 In July 2011 the GAVI Board ? requested the Secretariat, concurrently with the
evaluation of CSO support in 2011, to review options for direct support to CSOs
for service delivery and advocacy and submit to the PPC for its recommendation
to the Board ?. This paper presents the PPC recommendation for decision.

2. Recommendations

2.1 The Programme and Policy Committee recommend s that the GAVI Alliance Board:

? Decide that Government remains the default approach but direct funding for
CSO activities can be requested as part of a country Health Systems Funding
Platform (HSFP) application (Option 3).

While provision of funds to CSOs through the HSFP is the recommended
option, it should not limit GAVI?s flexibility to engage CSOs directly where
rare and exceptional circumstances require different approaches.
Approaches should be developed in response to country -specific analysis.

? Re quest the Secretariat to prepare an implementation framework
recognising an increased risk in procurement and financial management and
potential resource implications for the Secretariat and whic h draws on the
findings of the E valuation of GAVI support to CSOs and presents why and
how GAVI works with and supports CSOs.

3. Executive summary

3.1 At the July 2011 Board meeting, GAVI?s Civil Society Cons tituency expressed
concern that slow disbursement of GAVI funds for CSO Type B activities was
causing disruption to program implementation and undermining effectiveness.

Strategi c goal : Alliance operations


Section A: Overview
1. Purpose of the repor t

1.1 This report updates the GAVI Alliance Board on progress made since the
report presented to the Board at its meeting in November 2011 on the removal
of the GAVI Fund Affiliate (? GFA ?) from the IFFIm structure and sets out a
recommendation for the Board in relation to GAVI undertaking to perform
GFA?s major responsibility under the IFFIm Agreements .1

2. Recommendations

2.1 The GAVI Board is requested to:
(a) Approve GAVI entering into any new grant agreements with the IFFI m
donors once the Finance Framework Agreement (?FFA ?) is amended to
remove the GFA from the IFFIm structure; and
(b) Approve the immediate assignment to the IFFIm Company of any new
grant agreements entered into between GAVI and the IFFIm d onors .

3. Executive summary

3.1 The Secretariat presented at the GAVI Board meeting in November 2011 its
initial analysis on the proposal to remove GFA from the IFFIm structure . That
work is now complete and it is confirmed that there are no legal, tax or
accounting impediments to removing GFA. In addition, we have consulted with
most of the donors to IFFIm and they have expressed support for this change.
Once GFA is removed from the IFFIm structure , the donors have expressed a
preference that GFA?s major responsibility of entering in to grant agreements
with IFFIm d onors should be assigned to GAVI (rather than to IFFIm directly)
1 The IFFIm Agreements includes, among others, the Finance Framework Agreement, Procedures
Memorandum and the Master Defini tions Agreement.

Section A: Overview

1. Purpose of the repor t

1.1 The purpose of this report is to update the Board on the progress with regard to the
development of a customised strategy for India.

2. Recommendations

2.1 The paper is for information only. A detailed paper with financial implications will be
presented to the Executive Committee for approval later in the year.

3. Executive summary

3.1 This is an exciting phase for the GAVI -India relationship . Since the GAVI Board
meeting in November 2011, we have stepped up our engagement with India. Buoyed
by the success in interrupting polio transmission, India is demonstrating a new vigour
in its commitment to strengthening its immunisation programme.

3.2 Given India?s size and the scale of its own resources, GAVI?s approach continues to
be catalytic, with an emphasis on working with India to enhance the ambition and
effectiveness of India?s own immunisation programme.

3.3 Currently India is working on a reque st for GAVI support to strengthen the health
systems in weaker states thus enabling them to scale up pentavalent vaccines
nationally. A subsequent request for catalytic support to introduce measles -rubella
vaccine is expected. The decision to introduce pne umococcal and rotavirus vaccines
will be based on the successful outcome of clinical trials and other debates currently
underway in India, partial ly supported by GAVI partners. We are closely following
these activities and have offered to assist in any wa y we are able, including support if
necessary.

3.4 India will also continue to be a priority for GAVI?s market shaping strategy which will
include advocating for the strengthening of the National Regulatory Authority (NRA)
and encouraging the entry of manufac turers to supply current and potential future
GAVI -supported vaccines.

2. Recommendations

2.1 This report is for information.

3. Executive summary

3.1 Good progress is being made in India and Nigeria. Pentavalent vaccine has
now been introduced in two states in December 2011 in India and in January
2012 GAVI received a request to scale -up to an additional six states. Nigeria?s
National Vaccine Summit in April has focused high level atte ntion on the
phase -in of pentavalent and pneumococcal vaccines. This will be supported
by reprogramming of GAVI HSS and ISS funds (up to $ 60m in total ) and
targeting of potential new funding (to the tune of US$ 40 million) until the
country graduates .

3.2 Alliance partners are working closely with DRC, Ethiopia and Pakistan to
support them to manage significant implementation challenges related t o
introducing and sustaining new vaccine s. DRC paid its 2010 co -financing
arrears in May 2012 and intends to pay the 2011 amount by June 201 2.

3.3 In February 2012, WHO, UNICEF and the Secretariat reviewed progress on
development of Alliance action plans to support countries achieve and
maintain DTP3 coverage above 70%. WHO will prioritise work in Chad , DRC
and Uganda and finalise plans in Q3 of 2012 .

FINAL MINUTES

1. Chair?s report and consent agenda

Chair?s report
1.1 Finding a quorum of members present, the meetin g commenced at 9.02
Washington time on 12 June 2011. Dagfinn H?ybr?ten, Board Chair, chaired
the meeting.

1.2 The Chair opened the meeting by referencing the Norwegian concept of a
?dugnad,? which he explained was a group of people who come together to
solve problems for the common good. He observed tha t this Board was a
dugnad, and encouraged Board members to engage with each other in that
spirit.
1.3 The Chair referenced the Child Survival Call to Action organised by USAID,
UNICEF, and the governments of India and Ethiopia t o be held at Georgetown
University on 14-15 June 2012. He also announced th e publication of the
GAVI 2011 progress report, noting that a special on line edition was available.
He reminded the Board that 2011 had been a successf ul year: routine
immunisation rates reached 80%, the Board hired a n ew CEO, and GAVI met
its funding challenge. Now the Chair declared GAVI must ?deliver, deliver,
deliver? on the promises made at the pledging confe rence in June 2011.

1.4 Standing declarations of interest were tabled t o the Board (Doc 1a in the
Board pack). Alan Hinman noted that the Novartis re search grant reported in
Doc 1a was for rabies rather than measles. However, he declared an interest
in the measles decision since he leads a project th at works with the Measles-
Rubella Initiative (MR Initiative). He would recuse himself from that item. Anne
Schuchat reported that the US Centers for Disease C ontrol is involved with
some of the special studies to be discussed at this meeting and in the MR
Initiative; she would recuse herself from those mat ters. Nicholas Alipui and
Simon Bland declared they had no financial/personal interests in any of the
matters to be discussed at this meeting; so their o nly interests were in matters
involving UNICEF and DFID, respectively. Maria C. F reire declared interests
in any matters involving the Lasker Foundation (whe re she serves as
president) or Johns Hopkins University (where a fam ily member is employed),
