<p>The UK is fully committed to supporting Gavi and saving children’s lives through
increasing access to vaccines in lower income countries. Since 2000, Gavi has helped
to immunise 690 million children, preventing more than 10 million deaths. We see Gavi’s
Mid-Term Review meeting as a crucial opportunity to celebrate Gavi’s extraordinary
work, whilst also critically assessing how it can make even further progress in improving
access to lifesaving vaccines for the world’s most vulnerable people.</p><p>Regretfully,
diary pressures mean Ministers are unavailable to attend the meeting. However, senior
officials from the Department for International Development will be attending and
will ensure strong UK representation in these vital discussions.</p>
