The Pandemic Fund

ABOUT THE EVENT

Taking place on the eve of the High-Level Meeting on Pandemic Preparedness, Prevention and Response (HLM on PPPR), this event will mark the Fund’s achievements in its first year, while underscoring the need to maintain the momentum and the urgency to scale up pandemic PPR investments in low- and middle-income countries.

Partnerships and collective action are critical in making the world safer from future health threats. Speakers will discuss opportunities to do things differently. Furthermore, the event will showcase some of the projects that have been selected for funding by the Pandemic Fund under the first Call for Proposals, highlighting how grants from the Pandemic Fund are helping to catalyze long-term, predictable funding that is coordinated across organizations with similar goals and to strengthen much-needed capacity at country, regional and global levels.  

Join us as we bring together leaders in global health and ministers of health and finance; high-level representatives from philanthropies and foundations, Multilateral Development Banks (MDBs), UN agencies and global health institutions; and representatives from the private sector.

The Pandemic Fund is hosting this high-level event in partnership with the World Health Organization (WHO), on the margins of the United Nations General Assembly in New York.
