DIB Concept & Overview Sample Clauses

DIB Concept & Overview. Development impact bonds (DIBs) were introduced more recently in 2013 in a seminal report by Social Finance UK and the Center for Global Development (CGD) (CGD & Social Finance, 2013). The impetus for DIBs was to create a variation of SIBs better suited for development issues in LMICs or developing country contexts, since SIBs had primarily been implemented in the UK, US, and other high-income countries. With this aim, impact bonds implemented in LMICs are often labeled as DIBs. However, DIBs can also be identified by a key structural difference that has emerged: in a DIB, a non-government institution or organization typically acts as the outcome funder rather than the government as seen in a SIB. In a 2017 Brookings & Convergence report reviewing impact bonds in LMICs, multilaterals, foundations and philanthropists, nonprofits, and even one investment fund served as the outcome funder rather than the domestic government (Xxxxxxxxxx-Xxxxxx et al., 2017). This outcome funder- based definition will be used for DIBs throughout this thesis. Another difference between SIBs and DIBs is the greater need for risk management within DIBs. As the 2017 report noted, “implementing impact bonds in low- and middle-income countries involves the development of contextual understanding about the needs of outcome payers and investors in a riskier environment than the one faced by participants in high-income countries” (Xxxxxxxxxx-Xxxxxx et al., 2017, p. 9). Furthermore, as more non-government parties are involved in DIBs, quantifying the value of interventions can become more complicated. Still, DIBs and SIBs have the same underlying principles. They aim to create value through rapid scaling of evidence-based but perhaps complex interventions requiring upfront investment. DIBs also can add value by introducing more efficient delivery mechanisms to achieve the desired outcomes as well as deliver greater transparency around financial returns (CGD & Social Finance, 2013). Ultimately, DIBs aim to complement the existing development funding landscape by offering a model that may have advantages over traditional development or other results-based financing funding mechanisms.

  • Staffing Concerns Nurses, individually or as a group, believing there is an immediate workload/staffing problem should bring that problem to the attention of the supervisor or Nurse Manager as soon as the problem is identified. Nurses believing there is a continuous or potential workload/staffing problem, which may include the ability to receive rest periods and lunch breaks, should attempt to resolve the problem in discussions at the work unit level. Continuous or potential workload/staffing problems discussed at the work unit level that have not been resolved may be raised through the Joint Conference Committee. The Joint Conference Committee may determine that a unit- based work team would best address the workload/staffing problem raised. If the Joint Conference Committee makes that determination, a sub-committee consisting of an appropriate number of staff nurses who are from the unit and shift(s) experiencing the workload/staffing problem (appropriate number of staff nurses to be determined by the Joint Conference Committee), a WSNA representative and appropriate management staff will meet to discuss the problem raised. The sub-committee(s) shall report its results back to the Joint Conference Committee.
