The Global Alliance for Vaccines and Immunization aims to widen access to children's vaccines.Our focus is on a selected list of vaccines that could make a major impact on global disease burden if they were universally available.

In this section, we provide basic information about the diseases and vaccines and links to other sites for more detailed information, as well as links within the site to GAVI initiatives that deal with specific disease.

Diseases are split into three categories (see side panel):

Diseases for which vaccines are available now

Diseases for which vaccines are expected to be available shortly

Diseases for which more research is needed to develop vaccines

Additional information
