Discussion
  • The process for increasing NGO involvement in GAVI outlined by CVP is comprehensive, and it was hoped that it would not deter a strong developing country NGO from applying. Four serious applications to succeed CVP on the NGO seat of the Board had been received by the closing date.

  • The Chair of the Board will present a concrete proposal for next steps to take regarding the selection of the CVP successor on the GAVI Board, at the next Board teleconference.

DECISIONS

The Board:

2.1 Decided that the financial contribution (currently $300,000 per year) normally required from GAVI Board member organizations should not be a prerequisite for the NGO representative, but that it will be decided on a case-by-case basis.
