We advocate for policy solutions to catalyze new global health tools

GHTC works to influence the US government and multilateral entities to commit resources and enact policies to spur the development of urgently needed vaccines, drugs, and other technologies for neglected and emerging global health challenges and ensure they are affordable and accessible to the communities who need them.

Public funding

Increase effective public funding

New tools and technologies are urgently needed to address global health challenges in under-resourced settings. Government investments in R&D are critical to jump-starting and advancing the development of technologies for neglected diseases and conditions with limited commercial markets.

Efficient resource use

Enhance efficiency and effective use of resources

Limited information-sharing, transparency, and coordination among players in global health R&D hinders efficient development and introduction of global health innovations. Increased coordination of global health R&D activities and actors can help fill critical gaps in the product development pipeline, foster strategic partnerships, and better leverage resources and learning.

Multisector partnerships

Advance multisector partnerships

The world’s most pressing global health challenges are too great to be solved by any one sector alone. Multisector partnerships that leverage the resources, skills, and expertise of governments, civil society, and the private sector are essential for advancing the research, development, rollout, and scale-up of global health technologies.

Regulatory pathways

Strengthen regulatory pathways

Regulatory review is a necessary step to ensure that new global health innovations intended for patients in need are safe and effective. Mechanisms that streamline and strengthen regulatory pathways and harmonize review requirements will help promote access to urgently needed global health technologies.

Private-sector incentives

Incentivize greater private-sector investment and engagement

The private sector plays an important role in global health R&D. While it has tremendous resources to contribute to R&D for neglected diseases and conditions, limited prospects for financial return can often deter investment. Targeted and strategic incentives can encourage greater private-sector engagement in R&D for new global health technologies.

Innovative financing

Promote innovative financing mechanisms

Traditional public financing alone cannot fill the gap between global health R&D resources and need. New and innovative approaches to financing R&D are critical to developing the next generation of global health tools and technologies.
