<p>We welcome the UNICEF report and its recognition that DFID’s work already saves
children’s lives and makes a real difference. The Government’s commitment to end preventable
maternal, new-born and child deaths by 2030 is well aligned with the report’s recommendations.</p><p>We
are currently working on the detailed action plan on ending preventable deaths, setting
out the key shifts we, with partners in the international community, need to make
to achieve the goal. An example of this action is the UK commitment to help secure
at least $7.4 billion for Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance, through its replenishment this
year. This funding will allow Gavi to vaccinate 300 million more children and save
up to 8 million lives from preventable deaths by 2025.</p>
