The International Finance Facility for Immunisation was set up in 2006 to rapidly accelerate the availability and predictability of funds for GAVI's immunisation programmes.   Why IFFIm supports immunisation? A major constraint plaguing immunisation efforts in recent years has been the lack of stable, predictable and coordinated cash flows for an extended period. With the main issues in extending immunisation coverage requiring long-term projects, such as health worker training, developing countries have long emphasised their preference for large-scale, long-term funding. IFFIm helps to address this concern: its frontloading development assistance invests the majority of money "up front" allowing both developing countries and vaccine manufacturers to plan for longer periods of time knowing the necessary resources will be available. This predictability increases efficiency, planning and results.
