The “Biggest” Outcome of 2008 Toya-ko Summit The G8 Set “Toya-ko Framework” and its “Matrices” to

ensure its accountability for their existing pledges and commitments.

The document of “Toya-ko Framework for Action” set HSS target (2.3/1000 HCWs) and mentioned something about SRH

Global Health will be one of the major agenda on development for at least 2010.

G8 Health Experts Meeting will be responsible to make “Health Matrices” for G8’s progress on their pledges and G8 Heads will endorse it, by 2010 Canada G8 Summit.

Now Civil Society has wider opportunity of tracking, reviewing and evaluating G8 Commitments by utilizing the Mechanism

G8 Leaders Declaration and Toya-ko Framework cover wider issues such as… Health Financing (60 billion for 5 years) HIV/AIDS (Universal Access by 2010, Fund for GF) Malaria (100 million LLINs, and other measures) TB (no specific targets, but M/XDR-TB and TB/HIV) HSS (2.3/1000 Health Workers) MNCH (Up Birth rate with Skilled Birth Attendants) NTDs and Polio

Making Pledges Unclear… First draft of G8 Declaration didn’t mention “2010” and

Gleneagles commitment (Financial Times) 60 Billion: “3 diseases + HSS” (2007 Germany) ->

“infectious diseases + strengthening health” CS has Wider Opportunities to MAKE THEM KEEP

PLEDGES
