DESCRIPTION
CEPI, the Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations, is today issuing a new Call for Proposals inviting organizations around the world to apply for funding to speed up development, scale-up manufacturing capacity, and expand the geographical footprint of production of COVID-19 vaccine candidates.
The Call for Proposals will be open until at least 30 June 2020 with applications reviewed on a rolling basis every two weeks. It will support the rapid development of vaccines which could be available for licensure in 12-18 months or less, and increase the availability of vaccines for wide-spread global deployment.
