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.

Authored by: Barry Greene
Agenda item : 06
Category: For Decision
Strategic goal : SG3 - Financing
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.
