Addressing Financing Gaps: Cambodia’s Experience International Pledging Conference on Avian and Human Pandemic Influenza Beijing, 17-18 January 2006
2
Cambodia’s Challenge Endemic country with confirmed cases of avian and human HPAI infection, including four human fatalities Rapid support from FAO and WHO for technical planning, soliciting donor support and supervision Response has been to focus on immediate animal and human health surveillance and control requirements with good results – no confirmed outbreaks since May 2005 Now focusing on broader pandemic preparedness and longer term capacity strengthening requirements
3
Financing Gaps Challenge: Estimating Needs Addressing aspects which require stronger coordination – integrated communications, pandemic preparedness Uncertainty – how much to provision for larger scale outbreaks/pandemic risks? Shifting thinking of technical planning staff from immediate needs to longer term capacity strengthening requirements
4
Financing Gaps Challenge: Confirming Funding Commitments Multiple funding channels – existing programs, direct bilateral support, regional projects, funding through UN and other multilateral agencies, direct funding to NGOs Funding of expenses and activities not yet reflected in the technical plans – TA, backstopping, longer term needs Uncertainty regarding when funding will actually be available for expenditure on planned activities
5
Cambodia’s Response: Develop Program-Based Approach Strengthen internal and Government/donor/NGO coordination mechanisms to improve information sharing and transparency Develop monitoring and evaluation framework focused on results – not just inputs and outputs Agree with donors that based on above, there will be flexibility in application of funding in response to changing situation
