BUILDING ON STRONG FOUNDATIONS
We are pleased to publish our 2014 Annual Report. It was an important year, which saw a significant growth of the Grant Portfolio, to a multi-year value in excess of half a billion dollars.
In Nutrition we launched a new strategic plan, hired new staff, and initiated new programmes to implement the $700 million funding commitment made in 2013.
We embarked on an ambitious partnership to achieve a world free of worms and made a public pledge of $50 million to scale up Deworming efforts to tackle soil-transmitted helminths.
In Education and Health we continued to forge strong relationships with key global influencers such as the World Bank and the US Presidential Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief for new global programmes to help transform the lives of children.
It was a pivotal year for Climate Change where we scaled up work in China, Europe, and Latin America in advance of the crucial 2015 international climate conference in Paris.
In addition, we responded rapidly to the Ebola epidemic, releasing $20 million to support the global response in West Africa.
