Gavi partnered with the Audacious Alliance from 2018–2020 to support Living Goods and Last Mile Health to scale up immunisation in Kenya, Uganda and Liberia through digitally empowered Community Health Worker (CHW) programmes. The Audacious Project is a ground-breaking coalition of funders that includes the Skoll Foundation, Virgin Unite, The ELMA Foundation, The Children’s Investment Fund Foundation and others. The Audacious Project is housed at TED.
The partnership aimed to boost the number of community health workers and integrate immunisation information and data capture into their daily routines. The partnership has also helped transform how community health workers learn through the Community Health Academy, launched by Last Mile Health with the 2017 TED Prize.
Gavi committed US$ 9 million to the partnership through the BMGF Matching fund – US$ 5.5 million to Living Goods and US$ 3.5 million to Last Mile Health. This contribution was matched by funders from The Audacious Project to total US$ 18 million.
Proceeds are funds made available to Gavi from donor contributions and commitments, either through cash payments made to Gavi, through frontloading via the capital markets of a future donor commitment to IFFIm, or through AMC funds released to Gavi via the World Bank. IFFIm proceeds are allocated over five-year periods coinciding with Gavi’s strategic periods. Proceeds for the current and future strategic periods are indicative until the end of each period and could be revised following changes in market conditions (interest rates or foreign exchange rates), the signing of new pledge(s) and/or changes in IFFIm’s disbursement profile.

Notes:
Direct Contributions (including Matching Fund)
Received contributions: non-US$ contributions for 2000–2022 and Q1-Q2 2023 are expressed in US$ equivalents using the exchange rates on the dates of receipt. For 2014–2022 and Q1-Q2 2023 where contributions were hedged to mitigate currency risk exposure, these have been expressed using the rates applicable to the hedge agreement.
Future contributions (for pledges made prior to the June 2020 donor pledging conference): non-US$ Direct Contribution and Matching Fund pledges for Q3-Q4 2023 and for years 2024 and beyond are expressed in US$ equivalents using the applicable forecast rates from Bloomberg as at 30 June 2023 or using the rates applicable to any hedge agreement in place.
Future contributions (for pledges at the June 2020 donor pledging conference): non-US$ Direct Contribution and Matching Fund pledges for Q3-Q4 2023 and for years 2024 and beyond are expressed in US$ equivalents using the spot rates from Refinitiv as at 30 June 2023 or using the rates applicable to any hedge agreement in place.
IFFIm contributions
Received contributions: non-US$ contributions for 2000-2022 and Q1-Q2 2023 are expressed in US$ equivalents as confirmed by the IBRD (World Bank)
Future contributions: non-US$ Direct Contribution and Matching Fund pledges for Q3-Q4 2023 and for years 2024 and beyond are expressed in US$ equivalents using the applicable forecast rates from Bloomberg as at 30 June 2023 or using the rates applicable to any hedge agreement in place.
Due to IFFIm’s nature as a frontloading vehicle, yearly contributions paid into IFFIm can differ significantly from yearly proceeds transferred to Gavi.
While IFFIm grants are irrevocable and legally binding, they are subject to a Grant Payment Condition that can potentially reduce the amount due by the donor in the event that a Gavi-supported programme country is in protracted arrears with the International Monetary Fund. Since 29 June 2021, there is no longer any reduction applied, as all countries from the reference portfolio have cleared their arrears with the IMF.
