1. 1 Introduction to the new funding model Key features and implementation LFA PSM expert workshop 28 – 30 January 2014

2. 2 Bigger impact: focus on countries with the highest disease burden and lowest ability to pay, while keeping the portfolio global Predictable funding: process and financing levels become more predictable, with higher success rate of applications Ambitious vision: ability to elicit full expressions of demand and reward ambition Flexible timing: in line with country schedules, context, and priorities More streamlined: for both implementers and the Global Fund Principles of the new funding model Principles of the new funding model

3. 3 How does the new model differ from the previous model? Passive role by the Secretariat in influencing investments More active portfolio management to optimize impact Low predictability: timing of Rounds, success rates and available funds Engagement by Global Fund Country Teams in country dialogue and concept note development Cumbersome undifferentiated process to grant signing with different delays Disbursement-ready grants with differentiated approach Timelines largely defined by the Global Fund Hands-off Secretariat role prior to Board approval Timelines largely defined by each country High predictability: timing, success rates, indicative funding range From previous model To new funding model

4. 4 New funding model cycle and timing 2 nd GAC Concept Note 2-3 months Grant Making 1.5-3 months Board TRP GAC Ongoing Country Dialogue National Strategic Plan/ Investment Case Grant Implementation 3 years Countries can apply anytime in 2014-2016 – identify now when funds are needed for each disease Grant funds will run to the next replenishment in 2017 at least

5. Structure of the concept note 5 CCM Eligibility Requirements 1 & 2 Section 1:Country context and response Overall funding landscape, additionality of resources requested & financial sustainability Summary information about the request Section 4: implementation arrangements and risk assessment The funding request, including a programmatic gap analysis & the modular template Section 2: Section 3: Essential info & process Content

6. 6 The modular approach is a framework that runs through a grant's lifecycle The modular approach is a framework used to structure the information that defines a grant It runs throughout a grant's lifecycle, providing consistency at each stage –During the concept note stage, a funding request is defined by selecting a set of interventions per module to align with national strategy –During the grant making stage, each approved intervention is further defined by identifying and describing the required sets of activities –During grant implementation, progress of each intervention is monitored as laid out in the prior stages Program level Module Intervention Activity

9. 9 How long will it take to access funds? The average timing will be around 10 months from country dialogue to grant dispersements. Depending on how prepared a country is, it could take as little as 6 months or as long as 16 months to access funds. Working ahead on a strong National Strategic Plan or investment case is the best way to speed up the process. 1

13. 13 Health System Strengthening

14. 14 Objectives of the Global Fund’s HSS investments Objectives:  Building system’s capacity to scale-up services and improve their quality, equity and sustainability, particularly in hard-to-reach areas;  Strengthening performance of priority health system components;  Fostering synergies between multiple disease programs and promoting integrated approach to planning and programming multiple disease programs;  Maximizing the impact of the Global Fund’s investments beyond the three diseases, particularly for health improvements of mothers and children;  Supporting community and civil society actors enhance their engagement and contributions to the health system;  Ensuring that human rights and gender-related issues are adequately addressed. Support that contributes to strengthening performance of a health system function or a component, have direct linkage to improving HIV, TB or malaria outcomes, and benefit more than one disease programs (including HIV, TB, malaria and beyond)

15. 15 Options for Requesting HSS Support under NFM 1.Developing Concept Notes for eligible diseases without cross-cutting HSS (HSS formerly known as disease-specific HSS is still allowed) 2.Including HSS module(s) under one or more disease Concept Notes 3.Developing a separate HSS Concept Note for a stand-alone HSS grant 4.Developing a consolidated Concept Note by including eligible diseases and HSS under one funding request

If there is no TRP scheduled in the month the Concept Note is submitted, the “TRP and GAC review” stage may take longer, up to 3 months * This is the anticipated average scenario – it may take longer in some countries.
