GHIAA MAPGuide: creation of access resources and guidance for funders

The GHIAA MAPGuide enables users to explore a range of approaches used to address key issues in global health agreements.

As of 1 November 2021, the MAPGuide contained analysis of 387 provisions from 59 agreements, and our team is constantly working to expand on this.

An important next step in widening the impact of the MAPGuide is to create educational resources that present key information and best practice recommendations in a format that can be easily understood by all stakeholders.

The objective of this application is to develop materials that provide guidance to global health funders, PDPs and government ministries as they work to develop equitable access policies and ensure that they are translated into actionable agreements.

The materials will draw on the agreements and provisions in the MAPGuide to examine the key pillars of equitable access and how they can be achieved through meaningful and enforceable contract terms.

This information will be presented on the MAPGuide website in an easy to use format using a combination of infographics and a series of ‘plain English’ articles that explore key topics in more detail.
