Background
DAVOS 29 January 2010
Bill and Melinda Gates Pledge $10 Billion in Call for Decade of Vaccines
– Research, develop and deliver vaccines for the world’s poorest countries
– Increase vaccination and save more than 8 million children by 2020
– Call for other to help fill critical financing gaps in both research funding and
childhood immunization programs
– Commit significantly with $10 Billion, while realizing the investment is not sufficient
– Confirm that the new funding is in addition to the $4.5 billion already committed by
BMGF to vaccine research, development and delivery to date across its entire
disease portfolio since its inception
– Request increased investments in vaccines by governments and the private sector

Highest Level Support to the DOV

January 2010 DAVOS
– Margaret Chan, the director-general of the World Health
Organization, called the announcement
"unprecedented" in a written statement, but added that
it's "absolutely crucial that both governments and the
private sector step up efforts" as well.

May 2010 WHA
– DG's Opening Remarks ..." Earlier this year, the Bill and
Melinda Gates Foundation launched the Decade of
Vaccines by pledging $10 billion over the next ten years
to help deliver existing vaccines and develop new ones.
This commitment is most welcome. Vaccines are one of
the best life-saving buys on offer, preventing an
estimated 2 to 3 million deaths each year.

WHO and UNICEF, in close collaboration with the Gates
Foundation, countries, and partners, are initiating a
process to define the ambitions and scope of this
Decade of Vaccines."....
What is DoV?
DoV: A vision on how to use the next ten years to achieve further
immunization goals and key milestones in the discovery,
development and delivery of lifesaving vaccines, with a focus on
children and the poor.
A way to re-position Immunization more deeply in national agendas
and within the context of primary health care.
DoV Delivery: A way to strengthen immunization systems as a
platform to prevent mortality and morbidity, building on, and extending
the fundaments of GIVS

The Decade of Vaccines, 2011-2020: a comprehensive
venture to advance immunization
 The Decade of Vaccines (DoV) envisions a world where
children, families, and communities enjoy lives free of the
fear of vaccine preventable diseases.
 The goal of the DoV is to extend the full benefits of
immunization to all people, regardless of where they live.
– This goal reflects the perspective that access to safe and
effective vaccines is a human right that is not currently enjoyed
by all people, particularly in low and middle income countries.
 Will require full engagement of the diverse stakeholders
needed to facilitate vaccine discovery, development and
delivery

DoV Work Streams

Establishing and sustaining broad public and political support for
the use of vaccines and the financing of immunization services.

Strengthening the equitable delivery of immunization services to
achieve universal coverage of safe and effective vaccines by 2020
in order to prevent, control, eliminate or eradicate vaccinepreventable diseases.

Cultivating a robust scientific enterprise to produce innovation in the
discovery and development of new and improved vaccines and
associated technologies for high priority disease targets.

Creating the right market incentives to ensure an adequate and
reliable supply of affordable vaccines.

Proposal for Delivery Goal
The goal of the Delivery stream of the Decade of Vaccine is, throughout the lifecourse, to achieve equity in the delivery of effective and safe immunization
along with other essential primary health care interventions in order to
prevent, control, eliminate or eradicate vaccine-preventable diseases.
To strengthen country capacities to deliver immunization services to all people, following five
guiding principles:
1.
National ownership, responsibility and accountability in extending safe and effective immunization to
their target populations;
2.
Greater equity and equality in access to immunization both within and across countries, with a
particular focus on populations in greatest need;
3.
Ready and rapid access to new vaccines, technologies and products to meet national, regional and
global disease burden reduction;
4.
Alignment of immunization with other primary health care interventions; and
5.
Preparedness and response to special needs created by unusual events, including humanitarian
emergency action and the emergence of epidemics.

Costing of DoV/Delivery
 Estimate of the resource requirements to achieve the goals of
“DoV/Delivery" in low and lower-middle income countries for the period
2010-2020 and derive the unfunded mandate over the next decade
 Deliverables by Dec 2012:
– Headline figure on needs, financing and gaps in LLMIC
– Analysis of estimates and report on findings
– Documented methodology
– Established process to review and validate methodology and
results
– Estimates presented a various global and regional forums as
needed

DoV and Accelerated Disease Control
 Objective I. Achieve Equity in the Use of Vaccines
– Approach 1.5.: Achieve global and regional goals for accelerated
disease control, elimination and eradication
• Strive to achieve the existing disease control goals
• Increase national responsibility for and accountability to the agreed global and regional
goals.
• Forge effective partnerships involving governments, development agencies, as well as
civil society, including private entities and foundations, for financing, advocacy and
technical expertise.
• Establish a reliable supply of safe and effective vaccines to meet demand and create
procurement mechanism that provide predictable and stable supply volume at optimal
cost.
• Optimize the use of accelerated disease control, elimination and eradication resources
and capacity, in order to simultaneously strengthen routine immunization and surveillance
system in the hardest to reach areas.
• Sharpen tools and models to guide the accelerated control, elimination, and eradication
programmes.
