- Under Gavia's 2016-2020 strategy the Alliance commits to reaching the un-reached with livesaving vaccines and investing in building resilient health systems. This includes investment in national laboratory and surveillance capacity strengthening in line with the core capacities of the international health regulations. Recognising that outbreaks can create urgent needs and humanitarian consequences, existing efforts such as funding vaccine stockpiles for outbreak response will also continue to be enhanced. For example, Gavi has committed to procure 1st generation Ebola vaccine for a global stockpile once a vaccine(s) is licensed and WHO recommended. Going forward, Gavi remains committed to innovative engagement with partners and countries to help prepare, detect and respond to disease outbreaks and thereby help protect the health of millions of people including in fragile environments.
