How are donor countries responding to COVID-19?
Over the last few months, the Donor Tracker team has been following the impacts of COVID-19 in a rapidly shifting global development landscape. This slide deck accompanied a webinar where our speakers, Raimund Zühr and Zoë Johnson, presented some early insights into donor country responses, discussed the potential impact on ODA volumes and allocations, and explored how global development advocates can best respond.
Gender equality in the health workforce: An analysis of donor financing
Creating a gender-equal health workforce is increasingly recognized as a key vehicle to achieving Universal Health Coverage (UHC). Ahead of a panel on the topic hosted by Women in Global Health at this year’s World Health Summit in Berlin, we looked at how OECD DAC donors are funding gender equality in the healthcare workforce. We assess how funding flows line up with political rhetoric on the issue, discuss challenges with data validity, and highlight what kinds of development projects will need to be funded to achieve transformative change.
Aligning support for global public goods for health under the Global Action Plan
In a new policy paper, we teamed up with Duke University’s Center for Policy Impact in Global Health and UCSF’s Institute for Global Health Sciences to analyze how multilaterals can scale up their support for global public goods for health under the Global Action Plan. We focused on the four organizations that provide the most development assistance for health: Gavi, the Global Fund, World Bank, and World Health Organization. Our analysis points to five key actions these organizations can take individually and collectively to deliver on the Global Action Plan.
