1 1 Demystifying the New Funding Model GIZ Regional Conference Africa, MENA and LAC 6-9 May 2014, Accra

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 The new funding model has been designed to bring the Global Fund Strategy of ‘Investing for Impact’ to life. The new model will improve the way the Global Fund assesses, approves, disburses, and monitors grants Principles of the new funding model

3 3 Disease burden Income level External financing Minimum required level Grant performance Increasing infection rate Absorptive capacity Risk Impact = Country allocation Allocation formulaQualitative factors 15% of which accessible based on Willingness-to-Pay Overview of how funds are allocated to countries

4 4 Counterpart Financing Mandatory minimum requirements of counterpart financing Minimum threshold contribution (LI- 5%, Lower LMI-20%, Upper LMI- 40%, UMI-60%) Increasing government contribution to disease programs and health sector Reliable disease and health expenditure data ‘Willingness-to-Pay’ commitment to further incentivize Additional co-investments by government in disease programs in accordance with ability to pay Realization of planned government commitments 15% of allocation is contingent upon meeting WTP commitments Core Global Fund principles: Sustainability, Additionality, Country Ownership

5 5 Country band composition Allocation methodology 2 5 Disease Burden Income Lower Higher Lower Band 1 Band 3Band 4 Band 2 GNI per capita US$ 2,000 Lower-income, higher-burden 39 countries Higher-income, higher-burden 11 countries Lower-income, lower-burden 18 countries Higher-income, lower-burden 55 countries 0.26 composite score US$ 1.1bnUS$ 1.5bn US$ 0.9 bn US$ 11.3 bn US$ 83 million of incentive funding available for Band 3 US$ 825 million of incentive funding available for Band 1 US$ 42 million of incentive funding available for Band 2 Band 4 countries have incentive funding calculated into their allocations Higher

6 6 Total funding from Global Fund is increasing The total funds for allocation are 20% higher than what we have disbursed in the past. -The total funds to be allocated to countries, available as of January 1, 2014 (including existing funds): US$ 14.8 billion -Average implied funding level: US$ 3.7 billion per year -This compares favorably vs. the average annual disbursement rates of US$ 3.2 billion. In addition, the Global Fund will allocate: -US$ 950 million of incentive funding which will be awarded to ambitious programs that deliver impact in country -US$ 200 million for new regional grants and US$ 91 million to finish existing regional grants This represents US$ 16 billion for countries

7 7 Types of funding Country allocation A separate reserve of funding designed to reward high impact, well-performing programs and encourage ambitious requests It is made available, on a competitive basis, to applicants in Country Bands 1, 2, 3 Awarding of incentive funding will be based on the TRP recommendation. The GAC will decide on incentive funding, which will be included in the upper-ceiling of the grant Incentive funding* Any funding requested through a concept note which is considered strategically focused and technically sound by the TRP, but cannot be funded through available funding The demand is registered for possible funding by the Global Fund or other donors when, and if, any new resources become available Unfunded quality demand * Regional applicants, significantly over-allocated disease components and Band 4 countries are not eligible for incentive funding. Each eligible country receives an allocation to support its disease programs for the allocation period (communicated in March 2014) The amount is determined using an allocation methodology based on disease burden and income levels, and is adjusted for qualitative factors

8 8 New funding model cycle 2 nd GAC Concept NoteGrant Making Board TRP GAC Ongoing Country Dialogue National Strategic Plan/ Investment Case Grant Implementation

9 9 The term is used by the Global Fund to refer to the ongoing discussion that occurs at country level to prioritize how to fight the three diseases and strengthen health and community systems Concept NoteGrant-Making Ongoing Country Dialogue National Strategic Plan determined by country Grant Implementation 3 years Govt-led CCM-led PR-led CCM/PR-led Country owned process Country Dialogue Country dialogue is a country-owned, on-going process

10 10 Who plays a role in country dialogue? Country dialogue Technical partners Civil society / key populations Private sector Country government Other donors Global Fund These actors meet in the CCM, however, the dialogue should expand beyond the CCM Academia

11 11 How do we engage with communities, including key populations? Encourage assembling of communities in advance of national meetings Ensure they can raise their concerns on human rights, gender, access and other issues in a safe space without repercussions Ensure confidentiality for all participants Convene different groups of women, youth, key populations etc. separately and collectively as needed. Collective assembling can help create coalitions, separate meetings help in-depth discussions on specific needs and issues Facilitate meaningful participation e.g., national / regional meetings held outside the capital and in the local language Ensure communities understand what support they can expect from The Global Fund to address human rights, CSS, gender inequalities Ensure concerns raised by communities get raised and addressed during the country dialogue through lead representatives
