So far, we've asked you to be as embedded in your issue area as possible. Now, I am going to ask you to step outside your issue area and explore examples of innovative approaches and partnerships from other sectors. First up, you're going to need to look around outside of your issue area and identify successful multi-stakeholder partnerships. A multi-stakeholder partnership is just that, a partnership with many different stakeholders. Let's take a look at some examples. Gavi is an example of a successful multi-stakeholder partnership. Gavi was founded in 2000 to bring together public and private sectors with a shared goal of creating equal access to new and underused vaccines for children living in the world's poorest countries. The impetus for Gavi was the stagnation and in some places the decline of global vaccination rates in the 1990s. With the founding grant from the Bill and Melinda Gates foundation, Gavi was formed as an alliance to bring together UN agencies, governments, the vaccine industry, private sector, and civil society in order to improve childhood immunization coverage in poor countries and to accelerate access to new vaccines. The model was designed to leverage not just financial resources but expertise too, to help make vaccines more affordable and more available. Sustainability was also a central point of the design. The grant funding was purposely designed to create an environment where in time, developing countries could pay for vaccinations. Gavi has two components, a partnership model and a business model. Its partnership model relies on coordination to maximize existing systems and collaboration to draw on partners' specialist knowledge to find new solutions. Gavi's business model pools country demand and guarantees long term predictable funding to bring down prices of vaccinations. It is a 21st century development model and so far, it has worked. It is estimated that by 2015, 500 million additional children have been reached through the alliance and more than 7 million deaths have been prevented in the process. Another interesting example of a multi-stakeholder partnership is a business model and evolution of Acre Africa, a micro insurance product designer, focused on a smallholder farmers of East Africa. Kenyan farmers frequently experience failed germination of seeds due to unpredictable weather. If seeds do not germinate, farmers will not have anything to harvest when their crop comes. Acre developed a mobile, Index-Based Insurance product, called the replanting guarantee. Index-Based Insurance is a relatively new but innovative approach to insurance provision which pays out benefits on the basis of a predetermined index, such as rainfall levels. How does this work? If a maize farmer bought seeds at the beginning of the crop season, planted them, and germination failed due to the lack of rainfall, the farmer gets a payout equal to the price of a bag of seed, so that he can replant. Now, agricultural micro insurance is a hard sell in Kenya due to low customer awareness, affordability, and the lack of an immediate benefit, especially, when you think about the amount of resources that farmers have at their disposal. So instead of selling insurance directly to farmers, Acre built an insurance proposition for the seed companies who want to build customer loyalty around their brand. In Acre's model, seed companies pay money to an insurance company which insures each bag of seed. The seed bag includes a registration card which the farmers use to register for cover via mobile phone. When the farmer registers, the insurance provider gets the farmer's location and monitors satellite imagery for that location. If that location does not receive adequate rainfall, compensation is sent to the farmer via the mobile phone. Now, that's a lot of innovation in one product. By partnering with the mobile network operator, Safaricom, several insurance providers, and selling insurance to seed companies, the company achieves its ultimate goal of protecting the livelihoods of smallholder farmers throughout East Africa. Identifying successful partnership models is an excellent way to get ideas for how you can put together the different funders that you've identified in your resource mapping.
