Manage episode 373557756 series 2902575
Our guest this week is Carolyn Reynolds, Co-founder of the Pandemic Action Network (PAN).
In this episode we discuss how Carolyn’s involvement in the response to the Ebola crisis in West Africa led her to co-found PAN; and what PAN works to achieve, particularly in the lead up to the high-level meeting on pandemic prevention, preparedness, and response later this year.
We also discuss:
- Some of PAN’s accomplishments responding to the COVID-19 pandemic and preventing future pandemics.
- The role PAN has played in the creation of The Pandemic Fund.
- What it means to have a civil society voice for pandemic preparedness.
As well as her work with PAN, Carolyn is also a Global Health Policy Senior Associate at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, an expert adviser to the Commission on Strengthening America’s Health Security, and a Distinguished Fellow at The George Institute for Global Health. She has served as a senior adviser to international organizations, including the Global Financing Facility, World Bank, WHO, and Global Preparedness Monitoring Board.
