3. Youth & Adolescents

4. Adolescent Task Team Update
Task Team Ambitions:
At least three developing countries commit to significantly increase mCPR among all sexually active adolescents to drive towards SDG goal of universal access and reductions in adolescent birth rates by 2030.
Bold political and financial commitments to increase adolescent access to contraception through needed policy shifts and scaled up evidence-based programming supported by donor partnership and greater alignment with GFF.
Global Call to Action and Roadmap for Stronger Adolescent Data backed by donor and country commitments pave the way in closing key data gaps needed to drive and track progress on adolescent SRH.
Young people are supported to promote accountability and drive implementation of commitments to young people's access to contraceptive information and services.
Progress to date:
Data: agreement on better use of existing data & need to close key gaps (e.g., MCPR for unmarried sexually active). Opportunity to influence DHS & DHIS 2 and develop a roadmap on needed actions.
Large # of countries indicating interest in adolescents--Mozambique & OP looking promising; also Sierra Leone, Uganda, Tanzania and India.
Concept note on youth engagement finalized
Key Partners: CIFF, ASRH donor working group, Guttmacher, Pop Council, Health Data Collaborative, Torchlight Collective
Areas of overlap/potential support: Country Outreach--support soliciting adolescent country commitments given large number. Private- sector--overlap with our private sector objective. Expanded Method Mix—continued collaboration on needed policy, programs, & product for adolescents. CSO steering committee – support youth engagement in the Summit and follow on advocacy activities.
Note that first ambition may end up being strong commitment from OP to address adolescents and youth

5. Adolescent Task Team Update
Gaps & Challenges:
Challenge keeping task team moving forward while also delivering on our own objectives. Need administrative/PM support to free up technical capacity to deliver on ambitious objectives (data, TA fund, country commitment).
Still brainstorming data piece--need to think about how we hold ourselves accountable for adolescent FP commitments made at the Summit and how to ensure it is part of wider accountability structures and indicators.
Large # of countries—how best to channel efforts? Dependent on pace/process of country outreach and UNFPA’s guidance to countries to support strong adolescent commitments. Financial resources needed to move countries beyond “words”—opportunities for alignment with GFF, SWEDD, and other donor investments
Too many objectives--propose to give input but have private-sector task team lead on resource mobilization for A/Y; reframing narrative--focus on how we frame issue at the event & use as a platform to test out new global narrative
Next Steps/Actions:
Agree on first cut of focus countries and approach to supporting
Agree on what data analysis is possible ahead of the Summit to give some powerful and illustrative examples of need and potential impact (PME working group to share Data Commentary to take forwards)
Post-Summit Implementation: Solidify outcomes for 2020 and 2030 and partner with those leading on accountability to include indicators that hold us to account and continue to address key data gaps. Support youth and YLOs in following up commitments at country level to drive accountability.

6. Supply Chains

7. Supply chain Update
Please see attached word document for much of the context and detail for this slide
Task Team Ambition: 2-3 headline announcements at the Summit. How can this be communicated back to the broader group effectively?
Supply Chain Visibility
Sustainable Supply Chains
Communicated effectively: we ask that the word document is used, as it was developed jointly among the team
Progress to date: quick summary of achievements & objectives
Aligned on two key areas to highlight for the London Summit
A third area is a key area for coordination but won’t be highlighted at the Summit (Last Mile Delivery)
Key Partners: provide quick summary of key CSO, private sector, foundation etc. partners
We haven’t talked about key partners but can do so next week. So far we have aligned on our planned activities and focus areas.
Areas of overlap/potential support: where could your team benefit from input/support from other task teams, the planning team, etc. We need help from the country outreach team to work together with countries as they develop their plans for supply chain

8. Supply chain Update
Gaps & Challenges: quick summary of major areas of outstanding need & items that are hindering a) progress towards Summit planning and b) towards reaching your team’s objectives more broadly
Still seeking guidance on specific deliverables we have for the Summit
How will it be determined that partners are invited? (i.e. that excel list becoming invitations)
Next Steps/Actions: quick hit list of next steps until Summit
Tbd, as we aren’t sure the format or expectation of the Summit itself. Hope to get more clarity this week.
Post-Summit Implementation: 1-2 lines on post-July 11th planning – how will this work be taken forward?
Likely continuing the cadence we have established: 2 calls/ month and in-person quarterly
Please note there is also a meeting among USAID, UNFPA, and BMGF on Thursday morning to discuss supply chain at length. Coordination and specific activities should result.

9. Commodity Financing

10. Commodity financing Update
Task Team Ambition:
An agreement amongst the core conveners to commit to create a bridging mechanism to improve the efficiency of FP commodity financing by bridging between procurement needs and donor commitments to UNFPA and potentially other sources of consistent commodity funding
This mechanism could be a starting point for mechanisms that support bridge financing to help countries support more of their own commodity needs
Progress to date:
Discussions alongside the UNFPA SteerCo meeting in early April yielded early alignment with key stakeholders on the desire to explore this type of mechanism
McKinsey has been engaged by BMGF & UNFPA to help build evidence base and initial scoping for this type of mechanism
Key Partners: UNFPA, BMGF, DFID and potentially other donors / funding sources
Areas of overlap/potential support: We will keep in close contact with the broader resource mobilization and country sustainability efforts which will be key parts of our work achieving its aims

11. Commodity Financing Update
Gaps & Challenges:
Building the evidence base for a bridging mechanism
Working through potential structural challenges of creating such a mechanism
Next Steps/Actions:
Group will work towards build the evidence base and work through structural considerations to inform next steps and decisions amongst the core conveners / principals
Post-Summit Implementation:
Assuming the core conveners agree to move forward with implementing a bridging mechanism, they will work towards definitive agreements and then setting up of the bridging mechanism

12. Method Mix

13. Method mix Update
Task Team Ambition: 2-3 headline announcements at the Summit. How can this be communicated back to the broader group effectively?
Affordable contraceptive products are widely available to meet a range of users, including adolescents and youth, through introduction of additional methods and building a robust supply base by bringing low-cost, high-quality manufacturers to market.
Smart aid is successful: the value of public private partnerships have resulted in expanding implant access, bringing supply diversification through a range of industry partners to ensure low cost, high quality product availability – which has yielded increases in new FP users and reductions in maternal mortality
New innovations reach the most vulnerable: public private partnerships support expanded access to a new user-controlled contraceptive method, increasing access to a range of method choices, especially for the most hard to reach and underserved
Progress to date: quick summary of achievements & objectives
Workstream up and running with core partners
IAP smart aid “success story” under development with data from CHAI
Adol/Youth and method mix work stream – developed patient journey experience concept for market place
Key method mix opportunities identified for country engagement (see slide 3)
Initial discussions with humanitarian group –highlight EC and other method availability as critical
Event to highlight generic companies progress: Dahua PQ and PT Tungal and Mylan shd have ERP approval by July
Sayana Press public private partnership – first time in a decade a new, innovative contraceptive method is being introduced and scaled
Key Partners: provide quick summary of key CSO, private sector, foundation etc. partners
Industry: Dahua, PT Tungal, Mylan, Pfizer, Merck, Bayer
RHSC, WHO, CHAI, JSI
Core donor group: USAID, UNFPA, DFID, BMGF, CIFF, FP2020
SMOs – DKT, MSI, PSI - and NGOs – ie Pathfinder, EH, etc (tbc on how to engage)
Advocacy partners and local CSOs – highlight policy and advocacy success and opportunities (ie task shifting, role of PPMV, women’s advocacy groups, etc)
Areas of overlap/potential support: where could your team benefit from input/support from other task teams, the planning team, etc.
Method mix to feature in key geographies (see country engagement slide) – requires follow up at country level
Method mix and Adol/youth work stream working together to ensure synergies (policies, programs, products) at country level –highlight marketplace
Need to determine how best to highlight public private partnerships to showcase key industry partners who have expanded access to method mix
Discuss role of China – potential for engagement and possible commodity donations
the method mix scenario is quite bright - we have reduced implant costs, we have new technologies that will allow for increased empowerment of women, we have new PQ-d/ERP-d products in the near future - but the issue of insufficient funding to procure these products (whether from donors or from governments) needs to be factored in - significant commodity funding gap currently projected for this year and going forward

14. Method mix Update
Gaps & Challenges: quick summary of major areas of outstanding need & items that are hindering a) progress towards Summit planning and b) towards reaching your team’s objectives more broadly
Primary Challenge: Overall funding constraints for FP commodities raises risk that country demand will not be funded
Timing of WHO Pre-qualification process/Expert Review Panel critical if announcements on implant and DMPA IM are made
Summit announcement depends on countries including method mix in their commitments and funding commitments for commodities
Developing a common way forward to improve quality counseling - especially to support countries in their interpretation/application of the WHO change in MEC for injectables
Next Steps/Actions: quick hit list of next steps until Summit
Agreement and launch of DMPA-subQ access agreement.
WHO PQ and ERP quality assurance decisions
Communications development of “success stories”
Engagement w/key industry partners
Engagement with RHSC, SMO, NGOs, advocacy partners – and WHO
Post-Summit Implementation: 1-2 lines on post-July 11th planning – how will this work be taken forward?
DMPA-subQ rollout to be driven forward through donor structure that has been established (guaranty group, operations group, supply group) and complementary grants that are in place (e.g. Technical and Market Leader). Monitoring framework also under development.
Continued assurance of implant access through diversified manufacturers
Support in country to ensure expanded method mix access for adolescents and youth and within humanitarian settings

15. Method Mix & Country Engagement
Uganda: Country engagement has included SP/self-injection and expansion of method mix has been a key focus. Priority country to highlight.
 Nigeria: country engagement discussions have included task shifting and  SP
 India: focus will be on method mix expansion through injectable in public sector. SubQ early stage
Sierra Leone:  method mix is a key feature.  SINO has been registered and rolled out in private sector. CSP has developed a funding gap of products
Kenya: SINO part of method mix, expansion of LARCS for adol/youth, SP intro (need status update on registration)
Senegal: not on list but group decided Senegal is a key country to focus on for method mix including SubQ –
Niger and Burkina – also key areas to introduction of SubQ to expand method mix (Niger has early data on expanding method mix for adolescents/youth from Pathfinder)
CI and Guinea - TBC
Tanzania – follow up needed
Martyn will continue to link method mix with country engagement as an important part of the package of commitments.

16. Humanitarian

17. Humanitarian Update
Task Team Ambition: 2-3 headline announcements at the Summit. How can this be communicated back to the broader group effectively?
Ambition 1 – Financing: Call for existing financing structures (national budgets, planning mechanisms, frameworks, funds financing modalities) to effectively mobilize, prioritize and allocate funding for FP in humanitarian settings
Ambition 2 – Data (adoption of an agreed set of global and national Core Health Indicators) and Understanding (consolidation of evidence on how FP and SRH needs are a critical portion of a humanitarian response).
Ambition 3 - Agreeing to act (Statement of agreement between co-hosts, key partners and countries that is based on the WHS commitment that SRH, Launching revised MISP) and Building Back Better (WHS commitments on national resilience).
Progress to date: Technical workshop with key players, to agree a roadmap towards the Summit, scheduled for 04 May in Washington DC.
Key Partners: IAWG members, UNHCR, other traditional humanitarian actors, + drawing in World Bank now.
Areas of overlap/potential support: Innovative financing (e.g. mobilising GFF) crucial, as well as countries/regions where humanitarian commitments/actions could be built and profiled at the Summit.

18. HUMANITARIAN Update
Gaps & Challenges: Aim is to flesh this out at the 04 May workshop
Next Steps/Actions: 04 May technical workshop is most important next step
Post-Summit Implementation: TBC – to be discussed at 04 May workshop

19. PRIVATE SECTOR ENGAGEMENT Update
Task Team Ambition:
4-8 companies are participating in a year-long process, launched at the summit, developing new solutions and sustainable business opportunities in FP2020 focus areas, to accelerate the attainment of FP2020 goals.
Announcement by several companies of improved FP provision through workplace clinics.
Work strand A: New business opportunities. Scope interest with multinationals not traditionally involved in FP, then focus in on several to workshop FP problems and generate ideas for business opportunities that will contribute to FP2020 goals and be profitable for the companies.
Work strand B: Workplace clinics. Identify multinationals with large numbers of women in developing countries in their supply chains, host a briefing event and deliver our pitch on the benefits (to the business and to development) of factoring FP into their duty of care via workplace clinics.
Progress to date: Plans agreed for both workstrands. Initial outreach to companies has begun.
Key Partners: DFID, UNF, UNFPA, BMGF
Areas of overlap/potential support: Donor outreach needed to secure funds for follow-up process. Coordination and coherence needed with all other task teams. Spotlight session planned.

20. PRIVATE SECTOR ENGAGEMENT Update
Gaps & Challenges: quick summary of major areas of outstanding need & items that are hindering a) progress towards Summit planning and b) towards reaching your team’s objectives more broadly
Donor funding needed in order to fund a time-bound (one-year) mechanism – which companies and countries can sign up to at the summit – for developing business opportunities with the goal of establishing pilot projects. Estimated bare minimum of funds needed: $200,000.
Very challenging timescales for developing ideas for business opportunities and getting companies to a stage where they are happy to stand up and speak about an idea or initiative at the summit.
Next Steps/Actions:
Reach out to companies identified by UNF and UNFPA on improving FP provision in workplace clinics
Define FP problems that private sector could help solve
Identify non-traditional companies to approach
Targeted outreach, followed by two ideation sessions
Post-Summit Implementation: via a one-year business opportunity development mechanism
