Funding history
France has been a donor to GAVI since 2004 and has contributed to the Alliance through direct contributions and IFFIm.
Underpinning a strong commitment to innovative financing to meet health MDGs, France is the second largest contributor to the IFFIm (25% of IFFIm commitments for 2011-2015). In 2006, France made an initial commitment to IFFIm of €373 million over 20 years. An additional pledge in 2007 for 19 years brings France’s total commitment to IFFIm to €1.24 billion.
For the period 2004 to 2006, France made an annual contribution of €5 million. By end 2010, France had contributed a total of €15 million to the GAVI Alliance through direct contributions. In June 2011, France made an additional direct commitment of €100 million to GAVI over the period 2011-2015.
Of this €100 million pledge, €41.5 million has been received and an additional €16.5 million is under a signed grant agreement. The remaining amount has yet to be allocated to year by France and as such the annual allocation shown in the chart above is indicative only based off preliminary assumptions. An update of the annual allocation will be provided in due course.
Contributions and pledges in total:
- Direct funding (2004-2015): US$ 148 million;
- IFFIm: US$ 1.7 billion (€1.24 billion) over 19 years
