Our working groups focus on topics of current interest for the research funding community. Based on careful analysis, they develop solutions and suggest actions to support funders in effective policy and practice in key areas of relevance to pandemic preparedness and readiness.

Prior Working Groups
Once a working group’s objectives have been met, the group of experts is disbanded. The reports and other deliverables it has produced remain available on the GloPID-R RESOURCES page.
regional hubs
GloPID-R’s regional hub strategy focuses on regional research priorities, capacity building and funder engagement. A total of four hubs are planned. Each regional hub works closely with the Central Secretariat to ensure alignment with the GloPID-R prioritiesand to support better coordination and efficiency of research activities.
While resource-limited countries are more vulnerable to outbreaks of diseases with epidemic and pandemic potential, they are often less equipped to prepare for and respond to them. GloPID-R’s hub approach is intended to help address the outbreak preparedness and response challenges specific to each region by taking into account their unique needs and gaps.
