Good news alert! 🌱💡
 
Despite the uncertainty, @gavialliance’s 2025 high-level pledging summit was a moment of hope. Alongside strong leadership from historic donors, the summit saw a record number of new donors step up to support Gavi’s work, including former and current Gavi-supported countries.
 
From Indonesia, which underwent a two-decade journey from receiving Gavi support to funding the effort it once received, to the Gates Foundation, which emphasized their support for Gavi in an age of polycrisis, the record-breaking pledges served as a “moment of resolve and a reminder of the work ahead.”
 
A healthier world for all is a collective effort—and the collective is stepping up to the plate for another five years of giving everyone, everywhere a shot at life.

The U.S. has historically been a strong supporter of @gavialliance on a bipartisan basis, helping the Alliance save more than 18 million lives since 2000. 
 
But last week’s newfound uncertainty around the continuation of this support may put millions of lives at stake.
 
Take action today: tell Congress that supporting Gavi is key to a safe, healthy world for all. #linkinbio

From extreme winter cold spells impacting food security in Mongolia to dramatically increased rainfall triggering disease outbreaks in the Caribbean, the climate is forcibly recalibrating our approach to health.
 
And, on the flip side, health is becoming an entry point for conversations around climate change.
 
Initiatives like the ongoing collaboration between the World Health Organization and World Meteorological Organization (WHO-WMO) aim to “turn climate intelligence into health intelligence,” touching everything from disease transmission to vaccine mobilization.

Over 18 million lives have already been saved—but millions of children remain unprotected.
 
The question of another global disease outbreak is “when,” not “if.” Pandemic preparedness and response is more vital than ever before. @gavialliance’s health system strengthening and stockpiles of emergency vaccines are critical to these preparation efforts.
 
The high-level funding summit for Gavi’s next strategic period has now come to a close. Despite many record-breaking pledges, U.S. funding remains shrouded in uncertainty.

Yesterday, the Administration announced its decision to end funding for @gavialliance, which provides lifesaving immunizations for children around the world.
 
The U.S. has historically been a strong supporter of Gavi on a bipartisan basis. Without this critical support, up to 75 million children could miss out on basic vaccines over the next 5 years.

Today’s the day! World leaders are currently meeting in Belgium to fund Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance’s next five years, with a plan to save at least 8 million lives from 2026-2030.
 
Gavi’s new investment opportunity places an emphasis on strengthening health systems and increasing equitable immunization to reduce the number of ‘zero-dose’ children in the world by 50% by 2030.

Every child deserves a childhood, yet an alarming percentage of those forced to flee are children.
 
Some had to part with their parents.

Some lost loved ones.

Some don’t even remember their homes.
Refugee and displaced children who were forced to flee deserve better than today’s #GlobalTrends of conflicts and displacement.

Today, 1 in every 67 people on the planet is forcibly displaced.
 
Fleeing to save your life is an extremely hard choice.
 
But helping is NOT.

Mosquito-borne diseases like Zika and Dengue are spreading around the world and creeping across U.S. borders.

In many countries, this phenomenon is only going to escalate. Summer marks the start of the rainy season in Sub-Saharan Africa, the peak time for malaria transmission.

Scientists are working rigorously on new vaccines against Dengue, and malaria vaccines are continuously being implemented across the African continent. But these efforts are threatened by shifts in foreign aid funding.
