The Learning Network for Countries in Transition (LNCT – pronounced “linked”) is a platform dedicated to supporting countries as they transition away from Gavi support to the full domestic financing of their national immunization programs.
Curatio International Foundation (CIF) together with Results for Development provides technical facilitation and regional network support for LNCT. CIF brings a thorough understanding of the financial and programmatic aspects of immunization programs, expertise in health systems, financing and policy, and extensive experience in transition and sustainability of Gavi supported programs.
