Fitting Pandemic Solutions to Scale

This publication collates the insights from the Symposium on Multilateral Financing for Pandemic Preparedness and Response and proposes an investment road map to build resilient systems. Leaders and experts were brought together by the Asian Development Bank in 2025 to define a more equitable, effective, and agile path against future health issues. Insights from the meeting are collated in this publication, pinpointing strategic, financing, and governance gaps and indicating avenues to scale sustainable domestic and multilateral funding. The proposed investment road map could strengthen pandemic prevention, preparedness, and response, and reinforce the case for universal health coverage and primary health care as cornerstones of resilient systems.
