Editorial

Coronavirus vaccine, ODA and the need for transparency

Opinion Editorial June 16, 2020

Plans are underway for an aid-financed mechanism, the Gavi Covax Advance Market Commitment (AMC), that would provide free or subsidised COVID19 vaccine to almost half the world’s population. Discussions about how it will work and how much it might end up costing have taken place largely behind closed doors. For an initiative that could well claim a significant share of a shrinking global ODA pot, necessarily taking funding away from other needs, the lack of transparency is worrying.
