BREAKING THE CYCLE
OF PANIC & NEGLECT

We need united
action now
to respond to
COVID-19 and
prepare for
future
pandemics.

The COVID-19 pandemic has exposed the extreme fragility in the ability of the world’s systems to respond to a new and highly infectious pathogen.

The Pandemic Action Network advocates for policy changes and increased support and resources to ensure countries are better prepared to prevent, detect and respond to pandemic threats.

 

We’re also introducing “For Humankind”—a new effort to promote accurate information so that people around the world understand what they need to do to protect themselves and their communities from COVID-19.

Featured Campaign
