The GPMB board claim to be "independent" and care about the masses, it’s basically another elite NGO.
Such timing to be released in September 2019.
Another document that spends more time speaking about banks and investment loans than the desire of the worldwide electorates they take money from.
Chapter 3 is about preparing for the worst, a rapidly spreading lethal respiratory pathogen pandemic.
Take note of the usual symbolism that pops up in all these "world" styled groups.
Don’t forget taxpayer money goes to these "independent" organizations regularly.
"About the Global Preparedness Monitoring Board
As an independent monitoring and advocacy body, the Global Preparedness Monitoring Board (hereafter referred to as the Board or GPMB) urges political action to prepare for and mitigate the effects of global health emergencies. Co- convened in May 2018 by the World Bank Group and the World Health Organization, the Board builds on the work of the Global Health Crises Task Force and Panel, created by the United Nations Secretary-General in the wake of the 2014- 2016 Ebola epidemic. The Board works independently of all parties, including its co-conveners, to provide the most frank assessments and recommendations possible. The findings, interpretations, conclusions and opinions expressed in this report and by Board members represent their views only and not those of their organizations or of the co-conveners.
"The 15-member Board is made up of political leaders, heads of agencies, and experts, led jointly by Dr Gro Harlem Brundtland, formerly Prime Minister of Norway and Director-General of the World Health Organization and Mr Elhadj As Sy, Secretary General of the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies. Members serve on the Board in their individual capacities.
The goals of the Board are to:
• assess the world’s ability to protect itself from health emergencies
• identify critical gaps to preparedness across multiple perspectives;
• advocate for preparedness activities with national and international leaders and decision-makers.
The Board differs from other similar commissions and mechanisms, which are time-limited and often specific to one agency or sector. The Board, with a five-year initial term and benefiting from the engagement of independent experts and the support of a professional Secretariat, will monitor preparedness across a broad range of actors and sectors, urging specific actions to drive change. It complements and enhances existing accountability functions of the World Health Organization, the United Nations, the World Bank and other stakeholders"
"Progress indicator(s) by September 2020
• The Secretary-General of the United Nations, with the Director-General of WHO and Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs, strengthens coordination and identifies clear roles and responsibilities and timely triggers for a coordinated United Nations systemwide response for health emergencies in different countries and different health and humanitarian emergency contexts.
• The United Nations (including WHO) conducts at least two systemwide training and simulation exercises, including one covering the deliberate release of a lethal respiratory pathogen.
• WHO develops intermediate triggers to mobilize national, international and multilateral action early in outbreaks, to complement the existing mechanisms for later and more advanced stages of an outbreak under the IHR (2005).
• The Secretary General of the United Nations convenes a high-level dialogue with health, security and foreign affairs officials to determine how the world can address the threat of a lethal respiratory pathogen pandemic, as well as managing preparedness for disease outbreaks in complex, insecure contexts".
