- The World Health Organisation, UNICEF, and Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance, are concerned about the increasing threats to immunisation efforts due to misinformation, funding cuts, and rising outbreaks of vaccine-preventable diseases like measles, meningitis, and yellow fever globally.
- They are calling for urgent political attention and investment to strengthen immunisation programmes and protect the progress made in reducing child mortality over the past 50 years.
- Gavi is seeking at least $9 billion in funding to protect 500 million children and save 8 million lives from 2026 to 2030 at its upcoming high-level pledging summit on June 25, 2025.
