The Commission welcomes the preliminary consensus on the Pandemic Agreement which was reached, in Geneva, by the Intergovernmental Negotiating Body, underscoring the continuing strength of international cooperation and solidarity for global heath.
After three years of intensive negotiations the agreement reached marks a significant contribution to strengthening capacities for pandemic prevention, preparedness, and response taking a One Health approach. This is a decisive step toward a more equitable and proactive global approach to preventing and managing future pandemics, in full respect of the health policy responsibilities and competences of individual EU Member States.
