It emphasizes that greater domestic funding must be complemented by enhanced external financing, especially for low- and middle-income countries. Drawing on prior World Bank-WHO analysis prepared for the G20 task force, it highlights financing gaps and calls for coordinated support from multilateral banks, UN agencies, and global health institutions to build national and regional capacity.","Public Disc losure Authorized  \nESTABLISHMENT OF A FINANCIAL INTERMEDIARY FUND FOR PANDEMIC PREVENTION, PREPAREDNESS AND RESPONSE  \nPub lic Disc losure Authorized  \nABBREVIATIONS AND ACRONYMS  \n\n| AIDS | Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome |\n| --- | --- |\n| AMR | Antimicrobial Resistance |\n| CARICOM | Caribbean Community |\n| CDC | Center for Disease Control |\n| CEPI | Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations |\n| COVID | Coronavirus disease |\n| CRW | Crisis Response Window |\n| CSO | Civil Society Organization |\n| DFAT | Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade |\n| DPO | Development Policy Operation |\n| FIF | Financial Intermediary Fund |\n| G20 | Group of 20 |\n| G7 | Group of 7 |\n| GAFSP | Global Agriculture and Food Security Program |\n| GCFF | Global Concessional Financing Facility |\n| GDP | Gross Domestic Product |\n| GFF | Global Financing Facility |\n| GIF | Global Infrastructure Facility |\n| HEPR | Health Emergency Preparedness and Response Fund |\n| HLIP | High Level Independent Panel |\n| IBRD | International Bank for Reconstruction and Development |\n| IDA | International Development Association |\n| IFC | International Finance Corporation |\n| IHR | International Health Regulations |\n| IMF | International Monetary Fund |\n| JFHTF | Joint Finance and Health Task Force |\n| LIC | Low Income Country |\n| MDB | Multilateral Development Bank |\n| MDTF | Multi-donor Trust Fund |\n| MIC | Middle Income Country |\n| MPA | Multi-Phased Approach |\n| ODA | Overseas Development Assistance |\n| PPR | Prevention, Preparedness and Response |\n| SARS, | Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome |\n| TAC | Technical Advisory Committee |\n| TB | Tuberculosis |\n| UN | United Nations |\n| UNDP | United Nations Development Program |\n| UNFCCC | United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change |\n\n\n| UNHCR | United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees |\n| --- | --- |\n| WBG | World Bank Group |\n| WHO | World Health Organization |\n\nTABLE OF CONTENTS  \nI.

Introduction  \n1. COVID-19 has highlighted the urgent need for collective action to augment the existing global health security financing system and to mobilize additional resources to build health systems and strengthen capacity for pandemic prevention, preparedness, and response (PPR). Avoiding future pandemics requires investing substantially more in PPR; these investments will help avert the much larger costs that the world would incur if we were to be caught unprepared for the next global health crisis. Countries must step up domestic investments in the core capacities needed to strengthen health
