Closing the vaccine equity gap
How PATH is accelerating progress for equitable access to and delivery of lifesaving vaccines
Vaccine equity is crucial for protecting the health and well-being of communities worldwide, ensuring that lifesaving vaccines reach everyone, regardless of their geographic location or socioeconomic status. Despite the availability of vaccines, 21 million children were under-immunized or missing out on immunization entirely in 2023 alone. As barriers to access persist, many children are left at risk of preventable diseases and death.
Advocacy is critical in addressing these inequities by mobilizing political will, securing investments, and holding stakeholders accountable to prioritize equitable vaccine delivery. In partnership with PATH's Center for Vaccine Innovation and Access (CVIA), our teams are at the forefront of this effort, working to develop, deliver, and ensure access to vaccines for women, children, and communities around the globe. Through these efforts, PATH is driving progress toward a healthier, more equitable future.
PATH's Center for Vaccine Innovation and Access (CVIA) is dedicated to accelerating the development and delivery of lifesaving vaccines for the communities facing the greatest health risks around the world.
