Sustainability message
To mitigate the environmental impact of the Global Vaccine Impact Conference and balance the CO2 emissions caused by the travel and logistical necessities of the event, Gavi has worked with MyClimate to invest in a project to provide biogas systems to benefit Nepalese families.
This project reduces CO2 emissions, improves health, creates jobs, supports women, reduces deforestation and improves soil health, biodiversity and habitats.

The Spanish government has also contributed funding to the Gavi COVAX Advance Market Commitment (AMC) and pledged towards Gavi's malaria vaccine programme. This support is underpinned by a long-standing partnership with "la Caixa" Foundation.
