It motivates communities and ensure they have accurate, trusted, and reliable information on the safety and effectiveness of drugs and vaccines. We will need a stronger focus on driving access to medicines and vaccines to combat both communicable diseases, like HIV, tuberculosis, malaria, neglected tropical diseases and hepatitis, and non-communicable diseases, like cancer, heart disease, chronic respiratory diseases and diabetes.
We collaborate with the global public health community on the development of optimized use of drug & vaccines.
HFA aspires to become a ‘Center of Excellence’ for the effective and affordable development of vaccines to fight the infectious diseases.
HFA aims to bridge the gaps between academia and product development by establishing proof-of-concepts for the development of drugs and vaccines.
HFA works in consultation with experts from the academia, industry, foundations, public health institutions and its own Strategic Advisory Group.
HFAF forge partnerships with governments, policy makers, multilateral and international organizations, public-private sector, research and technical institutes, NGOs, philanthropic organizations and other like-minded institutions.
