<p>The International Financing Facility for Immunisation (IFFIm) was launched in 2006.
IFFIm’s frontloading capability for vaccine funding has allowed more than 80 million
children to be immunised ahead of time, without having to wait until Gavi has received
pledged donor grants.</p><p> </p><p>Subject to continued strong performance, the UK
will fund IFFIm until 2029. More broadly, the UK recognises the important role of
innovative financing mechanisms for vaccine delivery. In our role as hosts of the
2020 Gavi Replenishment, we will encourage discussions with other donors and other
stakeholders on ways to expand innovative financing to vaccinate children in poor
countries.</p>
