Gavi's high-level pledging summit, to be co-hosted by the European Union and the Gates Foundation, seeks to raise at least US$ 9 billion from our donors to fund our ambitious strategy to protect 500 million children, saving at least 8 million lives from 2026–2030, protect our world from the threat of pandemics, and protect communities from conflict, climate change and other global challenges.
Investing in Gavi’s next strategic cycle gives donors a unique opportunity to help to improve the health of people in the world’s lowest-income countries, strengthening global health security in turn.
The high-level pledging summit, culminating Gavi’s 6.0 replenishment cycle, will be co-hosted in Brussels by the European Union and the Gates Foundation. The event will bring together global leaders from government, partner organisations, vaccine manufacturers, civil society and the private sector to secure crucial investments in life-saving immunsation programmes.
Gavi is one of the most successful development initiatives in history, protecting people and communities around the world since 2000. With the launch of Gavi's Investment Opportunity 2026–2030, leaders from government, partner organisations, civil society and business express why immunisation matters.
As part of its mission to save lives and protect people’s health by increasing equitable and sustainable use of vaccines, Gavi has helped vaccinate more than 1.1 billion children in 78 lower-income countries, preventing more than 18.8 million future deaths.

The Global Forum for Vaccine Sovereignty and Innovation
On 20 June 2024, Gavi co-hosted the Forum alongside the African Union and the French Republic, launching its Investment Opportunity and the African Vaccine Manufacturing Accelerator (AVMA), an innovative financing mechanism which aims to foster regional vaccine production and vaccine sovereignty on the African continent.
What is the 'Health & Prosperity through Immunisation' Summit and why is it important?
The event will bring together global leaders from government, partner organisations, vaccine manufacturers, civil society and the private sector to secure crucial investments in life-saving immunsation programmes.
A successful replenishment for Gavi will enable the Vaccine Alliance to implement its most impactful strategic period ever. Outcomes, as set out in Gavi’s Investment Opportunity, are expected to include: immunising at least 500 million children; saving an additional 8–9 million lives; generating at least US$ 100 billion in economic benefits for Gavi implementing countries; unprecedented levels of co-financing, with implementing countries contributing US$ 4 billion towards the cost of immunisation programmes; and boosting global health security by responding to 150 disease outbreaks.
When will this event take place?
The event will take place on 25 June 2025, timings to be confirmed in the agenda closer to the event.
