A New Compact for Global Health Financing: Could Countries and Donors Rewrite the Rule Book on Health Aid?

Last year, myself and colleagues outlined how donors and recipient countries could radically change how health services are financed. In short, we proposed three things: 

• Locally-led evidence-informed prioritisation
• Domestic-first resource allocation
• Consolidated supplementary aid

The paper got a lot of interest and so today I’m delighted to publish the results of several collaborations to build on that work.

In the above, you will find a summary blog which will take you through the feedback we had and provide links to a set of papers:

•              A case study in Ethiopia

•              A case study on Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance

•              Implications for financing of common goods

•              Public financial management considerations

•              An exploration of the global political economy
