The Health Financing Partnership Facility was set up in 2013 to improve health outcomes in developing member countries. It is an umbrella operational arrangement to enhance administrative coordination and efficiency, and not a legal entity or structure. It mobilized cofinancing from development partner agencies, the private sector, and foundations to support the implementation of ADB’s Operational Plan of Health under Strategy 2020. The facility includes two funds: the Regional Malaria and Other Communicable Disease Threats Trust Fund (active fund) and the Cooperation Fund for Fighting HIV/AIDS in Asia and the Pacific (financially closed).
