<p>The UK is delighted to be hosting the Gavi Replenishment in 2020. Gavi has immunised
over 700 million children, saving 10 million lives from preventable diseases. The
UK is proud to have played a significant role in delivering these extraordinary results.</p><p>
</p><p>As hosts of the Replenishment Conference, our priority will be to help Gavi
secure the funding it needs to further deliver its life-saving work. The replenishment
period is also a terrific opportunity to demonstrate the impact of the UK’s contribution
to Gavi for the world’s poorest and to recognise the extraordinary work done by British
innovators, academics and health advocates to support Gavi’s mission.</p><p> </p><p>The
next strategic period for Gavi is critically important and the UK will continue to
press for further improvements. This includes promoting equitable coverage of immunisation
to leave no-one behind and ensure vaccines are available for the most vulnerable.
The UK will also prioritise ensuring our investment in Gavi is sustainable and delivers
maximum value for money by supporting countries to effectively transition from Gavi
support to increased domestic funding.</p>
