January 2021 - The World Health Organization (WHO) works with countries and partners to prepare for, prevent, respond to, and recover from, hazards that create health emergencies, including disasters, disease outbreaks, and conflicts. The WHO’s Contingency Fund for Emergencies (CFE) is a replenishable fund, which works to provide the resources necessary to rapidly scale up WHO’s initial, acute response to outbreaks and emergencies with health consequences. The Fund is designed to fill critical funding gaps from the beginning of an emergency until the organization can access additional sources of funds.

With GAC’S support, the CFE helps WHO react early to prevent the escalation of health emergencies. Project activities include: (1) deploying experts to assess outbreak threat; (2) delivering essential medicines, supplies and equipment; (3) providing training to health personnel; and (4) strengthening health sector coordination and health information systems.
