We are a global consortium of funding organizations investing in research related to new or re-emerging infectious diseases. The COVID-19 pandemic has brought our key priorities into sharper focus: increasing research preparedness, facilitating a rapid response, and strengthening collaboration and coordination among funders and other key stakeholders. The collaborative work that GloPID-R has accomplished since 2015, with a particular focus on preparedness and response to outbreaks including Ebola and Zika, allowed us to act swiftly and deliver a coordinated response to the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak as of January 2020.
