Unaffiliated Board members

Unaffiliated Board members are private individuals with no professional connection to GAVI’s work. Thus, they are able to bring independent and balanced scrutiny to all of the Board’s deliberations. These individuals also provide expertise in a number of critical areas such as investment, auditing and fundraising.
