Convergence, divergence, and a second convergence 3

Now on cusp of a historical achievement: Nearly all countries could converge by

Sources of income to fund convergence Economic growth IMF estimates low- and lower middle-income countries will add $9.6 trillion/y to GDP from Cost of convergence ($70 billion/y) is less than 1% of anticipated growth Mobilization of domestic resources Taxation of tobacco, alcohol, sugar, extractive industries Inter-sectoral reallocations and efficiency gains Redirection of fossil fuel subsidies to the health sector, health sector efficiency Subsidies account for 3.5% of GDP on a post-tax basis Development assistance for health Will still be crucial for achieving convergence The nature of DAH will need to evolve – more emphasis on R&D, pandemic preparedness and other “global” functions 5

Ebola was a ‘stress test’ on health systems 6

Poverty and disease burden now predominantly in middle-income countries About three quarters of the world’s poor now live in middle- income countries. Three middle-income countries account for almost half of the world’s extreme poor (India, Nigeria, and China). 70% of the global burden of disease is now located in middle- income countries. 7

Multidrug-resistant tuberculosis is predominantly a middle-income country problem 8 Worldwide distribution of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis cases by country income level, 2011 Total multidrug-resistant cases: 300,000

Rationale for new study 1.Previous research (e.g. IHME) has tracked donor funding to specific diseases and geographical regions, but no in-depth studies have tracked donor funding for global health functions. 2.Understanding flows to global versus country-specific functions could help to identify important underfunded areas for future donor investment. 3.Investments in global functions may lead to increased effectiveness and efficiency of health aid. 4.Understanding of extent to which donors focus country-specific support on low-income vs. middle-income countries will be important to guide aid investments in the post-2015 era. 5.The ongoing Equitable Access Initiative (EAI) addresses issues of future aid allocation but risks focusing discussion on formulas for allocating country- specific aid. 10

ODA+ for health: A more comprehensive picture of donor support for health OECD DAC, Creditor Reporting System (CRS), 2013 Bilateral health disbursements, using sector codes for health Health sector core contributions to multilaterals and partnerships Health official development assistance (OECD DAC) Additional funding for neglected disease R&D (G-FINDER) ODA+ 11 Policy Cures G-FINDER database, 2013 Public spending for pharmaceutical R&D for neglected diseases across assessed donors

12 Classification of donor financing for health FunctionExamples GLOBAL FUNCTIONS Supplying global public goods (GPGs) R&D for health tools Development and harmonization of international health regulations Knowledge generation and sharing Intellectual property sharing Market-shaping activities Managing cross-border externalities Outbreak preparedness and response Responses to antimicrobial resistance Responses to marketing of unhealthful products Control of cross-border disease movement Fostering leadership & stewardship Health advocacy and priority setting Promotion of aid effectiveness and accountability COUNTRY-SPECIFIC FUNCTIONS Direct support to low- and middle-income countries Achieving convergence Controlling NCDs and injuries Health-systems strengthening

Multilaterals and global functions 13 Multilateral Estimated % for global functions Gavi20% Global Fund10% IDA5% Regional development banks5% UNAIDS40% UNFPA22% UNICEF12% WHO62% Other multilateral organizations5%

ODA+ for health: Global vs. country-specific functions Donor spending for ODA+ for health was $22 billion (USD) in

Spending on global functions by eight donors, 2013, as a % of total ODA+ for health 15

Policy Implications 1.Strengthen support for global functions – Only one-fifth of ODA+ for health is for all global functions 2.As countries graduate from donor support, shift aid towards global functions – Efficient way to address “middle-income dilemma” 3.Selective support to middle-income countries for vulnerable groups and politically problematic services 4.Support health service delivery in the poorest countries 16

Allocation of education aid Very initial analysis of development assistance for education sector for 8 of the largest education donors shows even less spending for global functions and weak pro-poor focus 17 Source: Schäferhoff et al, 2015
