HRITF Donors
The goal of this website is to be a global forum for information on Results-based Financing for Health. We’ll keep you informed of the latest news and events, share lessons learned and results from programs around the world, and help inform policymakers to foster health systems strengthening.
This website is made possible through support from the multi-donor Health Results Innovation Trust Fund (HRITF), supported by the Governments of Norway and the United Kingdom, and administered by the World Bank.
About the Health Results Innovation Trust Fund (HRITF)
The HRITF is a multi-donor trust fund created by the World Bank in 2007 to support RBF approaches in the health sector for achievement of the health-related MDGs ─ particularly MDGs 1c, 4 and 5. Current donors include the Governments of Norway and the United Kingdom, with commitments totaling US$550 million through 2022. The HRITF works with development partners and client countries to build and use country systems.
Aims of the HRITF:
- Support design, implementation, monitoring and evaluation of RBF mechanisms
- Develop and disseminate the evidence base for implementing successful RBF mechanisms
- Build country institutional capacity to scale up and sustain the RBF mechanisms, with the national health strategy and system
- Attract additional financing to the health sector
