African Programme for Onchocerciasis Control Trust Fund annual expenditure.

Since the inception of APOC in 1995, expenditure has increased steadily until 2007, mainly with external donor support (listed in http://www.who.int/apoc/about/funding/en/index.html). The orange and dark turquoise portion of the bars represents investment in administration, and the grey and light turquoise portions indicate support for technical activities, operations research, and capacity building. External funding has decreased since 2007 and it is anticipated that from 2015 onwards the programme will be fully devolved to participating countries and their NGDOs. Recently, APOC's mandate has been extended to 2025.
