Secretariat Support for G20 High Level Independent Panel (HLIP)
Wellcome Trust
National Academy of Sciences, America (NAS)
The G20, as proposed by the Italian G20 Presidency, has mandated a High-Level Independent Panel (HLIP) to recommend actionable solutions for reliable and sustainable financing of the global commons for pandemic prevention, surveillance, preparedness and response. The Panel’s recommendations will be presented to the G20 Finance Ministers and Central Bank Governors Meeting in July. To provide the HLIP with support for logistics, coordination, outreach, and communication/engagement, The National Academy of Medicine (NAM) proposes to establish a joint Secretariat comprised of 4-5 individuals from the NAM and the Wellcome Trust. From February through October 2021, it is expected that the joint Secretariat will support the execution of the independent review by the HLIP. The work of the Secretariat during these eight months will include: 1) meeting logistics and organization; 2) meeting facilitation (agenda setting, conduct, and procedures); 3) outreach and communication with key political and other stakeholders; and, as needed 4) limited research/analytical/writing support for health-related content.
