Hundreds of millions of children living in the world’s poorest
countries will receive life-saving vaccines as a result of
record-breaking financial commitments made at the Gavi Pledging
Conference, hosted in Berlin by German Federal Chancellor Angela
Merkel.
The new pledges, totalling US$ 7.5 billion, will enable countries to
immunise an additional 300 million children, leading to 5 to 6 million
premature deaths being averted and economic benefits of between US$ 80
and US$ 100 billion for developing countries through productivity
gains and savings in treatment and transportation costs and caretaker
wages.
Chancellor Merkel was joined in Berlin by H.E. Dr Jakaya Mrisho
Kikwete, President of the United Republic of Tanzania, and H.E. Mr
Ibrahim Boubacar Keïta, President of the Republic of Mali, Erna
Solberg, Prime Minister of Norway, Donald Kaberuka, President of the
African Development Bank, Bill Gates, Co-Chair of the Bill & Melinda
Gates Foundation, ministers from more than 20 implementing and donor
countries, civil society groups, CEOs of vaccine manufacturing
companies, UN agencies and others who came together to secure
commitments to fully fund Gavi-supported immunization programmes in
developing countries between 2016 and 2020.
“Thanks to the joint commitments of developing countries, development
partners, vaccine manufacturers and others, Tanzania is making great
strides in protecting its children through immunisation,” said
President Kikwete of Tanzania.
“The health and wellbeing of our children should always be our highest
priority and in the future Tanzania will be able to fully support its
own immunisation programmes. Until that time I am pleased that the
Gavi partners continue to recognise the importance of the work to
improve immunisation around the world.”
“We are pleased to be working with Gavi to ensure our children –
including those living in the most remote and inaccessible areas – are
protected with modern, effective vaccines,” said President Keïta.
“Thanks to today’s historic pledges, children in Mali and around the
world will have the opportunity to enjoy a healthy future through the
power of immunisation.”
In her statement at the conference, the first event of Germany’s G7
presidency, Chancellor Merkel said: “There is a long way still to go
but today’s conference is an important milestone in the work of Gavi
for the next few years to come. Please let us not fail, let us not
lose courage but continue to put all our efforts into this wonderful
work and thank all of those who are committed to this goal.”
“Today is a great day for children in the world’s poorest countries
who will now receive the life-saving vaccines they need,” said Bill
Gates. “We believe in the next 15 years, poor people’s lives will
improve faster than any other period in history and that access to
vaccines provided by Gavi are critical to making that happen.
” We believe in the next 15 years, poor people’s lives will improve

Co-Chair of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation The Gavi Pledging
Conference, which was opened by Germany’s Federal Minister of Economic
Cooperation and Development, Gerd Müller, saw unprecedented engagement
from donors, with many deciding to double or even triple their
commitments to support Gavi in what will be its highest period of
financial need.
China, Oman, Qatar and Saudi Arabia made pledges to Gavi for the
first time. China’s pledge means that all BRICS countries are now
making financial contributions towards childhood immunisation through
Gavi.
Developing countries are also increasing their financial contributions
towards immunisation.
Between 2016 and 2020, Gavi forecasts that implementing countries will
allocate a combined total of around US$ 1.2 billion, which is
additional to the funding provided by donors, towards their
Gavi-supported programmes through the Alliance’s co-financing policy.
This country ownership is vital to increasing the long-term
sustainability of vaccine programmes.
