Reporting to: Lead Advisor, Outbreaks and Epidemics

Background

The African Risk Capacity (ARC) Group, composed of a Specialized Agency of the African Union [1], and a mutual insurance company African Risk Capacity Limited, provides financial tools and infrastructure to support African Union (AU) member states manage natural disaster risks, including outbreaks & epidemics, and improve the way predictable natural disasters are responded to on the continent by reducing the time it takes for assistance to reach those affected through early and local response. ARC achieves this by bringing together three critical elements that create a powerful value proposition for its participants: early warning, contingency planning, and sovereign parametric insurance. Together this package provides governments with access to predictable funding for early and planned responses to support vulnerable populations in the event of disasters. This vehicle allows ARC to help its members build the capacity to lead their responses and reduce their reliance on the international appeals process for assistance over time. More critically, reduced response times save the lives and livelihoods of those affected and protect development gains, essential for growth and building a more disaster-resilient Africa for the future.

Emerging infectious diseases pose an increasing threat to health and economic development in Africa. In the past few years, countries and the international community have moved towards a more robust and well-coordinated response approach towards public health emergencies (PHE). Despite this, and other improvements in preparedness and the increased speed of detection and response, rapid deployment of medical countermeasures and vaccines, timely access to funding in respect to many PHE remains unpredictable. In the circumstances where funding is secured, it is largely on an _ad hoc_ basis and after the occurrence of an event of a given magnitude. Slow and unpredictable funding amplifies both the risk and impact of outbreaks. Any delays in mounting an effective response leads to escalation of outbreak with sustained transmission leading to loss of life, socio-economic disruption of the affected communities, and negative impact on the nation’s development agenda.

ARC, with the support of Ginkgo Biosecurity, developed an infectious disease spread model and a statistical model to quantify the risk posed by epidemic-prone diseases in Africa such as filovirus (Ebola virus disease and Marburg virus disease) and meningitis respectively, to inform epidemic risk management and risk financing strategies.

The epidemic risk modelling components include:

- A disease spread model, which simulates realistic disease transmission during plausible outbreak scenarios (filovirus modelling);
- The disease spread model, specific to each of the covered pathogens, are used to generate a large pool of plausible epidemic scenarios of various frequencies and severities, known as the event catalogs; and
- The output from the simulation of epidemic scenarios provides a comprehensive database that enables risk analytics such as estimations of human (infections; hospitalizations; deaths) and financial losses.

Based on the epidemic risk modelling and the estimated risk of epidemic occurrence, the ARC Group launched In December 2022 its sovereign parametric risk insur
