March 27, 2014
A key example is Canada’s support of GAVI’s innovative business model, including the Advance Market Commitment, which has reduced the price of the pneumococcal vaccine by 95% for poor countries. This event took place at a key moment to define the role and value of public-private partnerships, and determine how existing models can realize further progress at a global scale and be replicated in other sectors.
As the global community prepared to convene in Toronto at the Summit on Maternal, Newborn and Child Health (May 28-30), AKFC and CAN-MNCH continued to explore effective and innovative approaches and a new development framework for post-2015 to reach the most marginalized women and children.
