Citing the importance of targeting critical resources to prevent and mitigate future biothreats, NTI joined governments and organizations from around the world for the 2nd Global COVID-19 Summit on May 12, 2022. As part of its participation, NTI committed to provide $35,000 to the pandemic preparedness and global health security financial intermediary fund once it is established and committed to using the Global Health Security Index as a tool to inform prioritization—so resources can be allocated to countries most in need and to address the most significant health security gaps. The Summit, co-hosted by the United States, Belize, Germany, Indonesia, and Senegal, garnered more than $3 billion new financial commitments to accelerate collective efforts to build health security for future pandemics and other health crises.
