OVERVIEW
This Financial Resource Requirements (FRRs) report is the budget document accompanying the Polio Eradication & Endgame Strategic Plan 2013-2018 (PEESP) of the Global Polio Eradication Initiative (GPEI).
The FRRs are updated twice per year based on evolving epidemiology and available funding. The financial needs reflected in this publication represent the requirements for activities to be implemented by the World Health Organization (WHO), the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) and Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance (Gavi) in coordination with national governments, and include agency indirect costs where applicable. The FRRs do not include estimations of costs incurred directly by national governments.
While the FRRs only cover the direct budget requirements for WHO, UNICEF and Gavi to implement activities as per the PEESP, the annual Non-FRR Report captures self-reported donor contributions to areas supportive of polio eradication, but that are outside of the FRRs. Non-FRR contributions are either in kind or in cash and are for activities that directly increase the likelihood of the success of the polio eradication programme, but they are not a part of eradication or other activities included in this FRR document. Non-FRR contributions do not decrease outstanding donor commitments to FRR activities.
