Every child, no matter where he or she is born, has the right to the opportunity of a healthy life and vaccines are one of the best ways to achieve it. As a public private partnership, Gavi focuses the specialist skills of the key players in immunisation --UNICEF, the World Health Organization, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, donor governments, developing countries, the pharmaceutical industry - on a single mission: to save children's lives and protect people's health by increasing access to immunisation in poor countries.
