New Zealand became a donor to Gavi in 2020, when New Zealand’s Prime Minister, Jacinda Ardern, pledged New Zealand $7 million (US$ 3 million) during the Global Vaccine Summit 2020. “We need the vaccine to prevent the spread of COVID-19 and when we find a vaccine, it must be available to everyone,” she said. The funding was directed at the Gavi COVAX AMC to ensure equal and timely access to the COVID-19 vaccines for developing countries. New Zealand further contributed New Zealand $10 million (US$ 4.2 million) to the COVAX AMC and a further New Zealand $9 million (US$ 3.8 million) for delivery support at the COVAX AMC Summit co-hosted by Gavi and Germany, bringing New Zealand’s commitment to the COVAX AMC to New Zealand $26 million (US$ 11 million).
