(VOVWORLD) - Several countries and foundations are set to pledge more than 500 million USD to a global pool aimed at ensuring equitable access to coronavirus tests, treatment and vaccines for all nations, said the Paris Peace Forum, held online from Wednesday to Friday.

Donation will come from the European Committee, France, Spain, the UK, and the Bill and Melinda Gates foundation.

The Forum’s 3rd edition was aimed at mobilizing resources to address global challenges. The event was focused on the post-pandemic international order and the fundamental transformation of a multilateral system in crisis. It prioritized access to the COVID-19 vaccine, whose distribution risks being unfair.
