Preparing for future pandemics
CEPI, the Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations, is a global partnership working to accelerate the development of vaccines and other biologic countermeasures against epidemic and pandemic threats.
We want to create a world in which epidemics and pandemics are no longer a threat to humanity.
CEPI is working to galvanise the development of new vaccines and other biologic countermeasures against diseases that could cause the next devastating epidemic or pandemic.

Emerging infectious diseases affect us all. They do not respect borders.
A commitment to equitable access informs every aspect of our work. It is core to CEPI’s vision of a world in which epidemics and pandemics are no longer a threat to humanity.
CEPI take a systems approach to equitable access, seeking to enable equitable access within a broad ecosystem of national and international public and private sector partners and networks.
We work towards this goal by enabling equitable access directly through financial investments and partnerships, and indirectly through advocacy and policy contributions to the evolving ecosystem.
