Programme Budget and Workplan 2018-2019

Overview

The Programme Budget and Workplan for the 2018-2019 biennium supports a competitive portfolio where impact on health is enhanced by innovative research projects and strengthened research capacity in low- and middle-income countries. With 81% of funds channelled into operations (including staff directly related to operations), TDR delivers value for money.

Both the TDR Strategy for 2018-2023 and the proposed budget reflect TDR’s commitment to contribute to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), with a focus on the following: 3 (good health and well-being); 4 (quality education); 5 (gender equality); 6 (clean water and sanitation); 9 (industry, innovation and infrastructure); 10 (reduced inequalities); 11 (sustainable cities and communities); 13 (climate action); and 17 (partnerships for the goals).

The details of the budget and workplan are included as Annex I, where each expected result with its deliverables is linked to indicators, targets and allocated budget figures.

The 2018-2019 workplan builds upon TDR’s 2016-2017 portfolio of projects.
