Whether interested in designing an innovative financing mechanism or leveraging expertise for program improvement, governments can co-create solutions with additional stakeholders to achieve sustained and growing immunization budgets. In order to capitalize on trends in the region for the benefit of public immunization programs, governments should explore partnering with other public and private stakeholders. Such partners can help to explore and implement innovative financing mechanisms to bring in new funds (additionality) and improve the use of current funds (efficiency) for the benefit of immunization programs. To move forward on innovative financing mechanisms that can bring additionality or efficiency, development organizations and private sector partners can provide knowledge and resources traditionally unavailable to governments, and in turn build relationships with governments by serving as a valued and trusted partner. Through exploration of such partnerships, governments can meaningfully work to address affordability challenges and achieve sustained and growing immunization programs.
