What is a Global Focus Area?
GFA = Global Focus Area ☺
A Global Focus Area contains topics that are globally agreed as relevant for the overall development of the organization. These topics come from the analysis of:
• The opportunities of our external environment.
• The current performance of the organization
• The needs analysing our strategy map
The GFAs are selected in the international presidents meeting, so it is a strategic decision made by the global leadership team. This means that these topics are relevant for the countries and are chosen to support the overall development of countries in both performance and health.
How was this selection process?
• We had the following Input papers before the conference started: External environment
assessment (compilation from countries and AI), GN inputs coming from GN premeetings,
LCs input.
• There was a general collection of information throughout the conference in the “Global
Focus Area wall”: delegates had a place where they could write down the ideas for the
global focus areas during the first 4 days of the conference. We were also providedwith
learning logs for us to capture their ideas keep them with us and also post them in the
wall.
• Global focus areas selection at IPM (for the process please refer to the session outline
here):
• Then in the GN conferences we created actions steps for countries and LCs to contribute
to the execution of the Global Focus Areas
What are the benefits of including the Global Focus Areas in my plan?
• You will have more countries cooperating under the same frame
• You will have global and regional support.
• You have part of your planning process done already with the contribution of the entire global network (the actions steps created during Xpros)

Now that you are planning for next year you can easily incorporate the global and regional plans. If from the current state analysis you have noticed that certain external trends match with your country and if you have noticed that you need to focus in certain CSFs that are addressed by the GFAs and / or regional plans, you can automatically take the suggested actions under the global / regional focus area. You will have more countries cooperating under the same frame and you will have global and regional support.
