The GAVI Alliance is known for the best return on investment possible in saving children’s lives.

We are a principled organization dedicated to the immunization of children worldwide. Our operations emphasize urgency, innovation, and informed risk-taking.

We work at scale and for results.

Bill and Melinda Gates and GAVI Alliance CEO Julian Lob-Levyt discussed GAVI’s high return on investment at the 2007 World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland.

With our help, the world’s poorest nations are reducing the mortality rate among children and mothers. These aspirations launched our Alliance in the year 2000 and were placed at the heart of the global development agenda in the form of the Millennium Development Goals in that same year.
