Genf, Genf, Schweiz Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance Secretariat Vollzeit

Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance is a public-private partnership committed to saving children's lives and protecting people's health by increasing equitable use of vaccines in lower-income countries.

The Vaccine Alliance brings together implementing country and donor governments, the World Health Organisation, UNICEF, the World Bank, the vaccine industry, technical agencies, civil society, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and other private sector partners.

Gavi uses innovative finance mechanisms, including co-financing by recipient countries, to secure sustainable funding and adequate supply of quality vaccines.

Since 2000, Gavi has contributed to the immunisation of more than 981 million children and the prevention of more than 16 million future deaths.


THE ROLE


In 2016, the Gavi Board approved an acceleration of the Measles & Rubella vaccine programme, allowing countries in the first year of their programme to scale up directly and vaccinate single age (9 years) and multi-age cohorts of girls years).

The programme has so far been introduced in 26 countries, with many more countries in the pipeline.

Coverage declines have been experienced due to underlying programme challenges and impact of C-19 however the recent SAGE 1 dose permissive off label recommendation offers a unique opportunity for renewed momentum along with the recently PPC/Board approved Measles & Rubella programme relaunch.
