Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance, helps vaccinate half the world’s children against deadly and debilitating infectious diseases. We are committed to working with our partners to #ProtectTheNextGeneration and realise our mission to save lives, reduce poverty and protect the world against the threat of epidemics. Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance, brings together the public and private sectors with the shared goal of creating equal access to new and underused vaccines for children living in the poorest countries. Since its inception in 2000, Gavi has helped prevent more than nine million deaths in developing countries and contributed to the immunisation of nearly 640 million children.
