The **Global Research Collaboration for Infectious Disease Preparedness (GloPID-R)** is an international network of research funding organizations in the area of infectious diseases preparedness research.

The GloPID-R Secretariat is hosted by the Mérieux Foundation in France, in close collaboration with the University of Oxford in England.

## History

In February 2013, a group of international research funding organizations united under the banner of Heads of International Research Organizations (HIROs) in Brussels, Belgium, with GloPID-R formally launching at this meeting.[\[1\]](#fn1)[\[2\]](#fn2)

### COVID-19

On February 11-12, 2020, GloPID-R co-hosted an event with the [World Health Organization](https://www.whiteroseintelligence.com/World-Health-Organization)'s R&D Blueprint called “[2019 novel Coronavirus Global research and innovation forum: towards a research roadmap](https://www.whiteroseintelligence.com/2019-novel-Coronavirus-Global-research-and-innovation-forum-towards-a-research-roadmap).”[\[3\]](#fn3)

On October 18, 2021, GloPID-R chair [Charu Kaushic](https://www.whiteroseintelligence.com/Charu-Kaushic) delivered a presentation to [Cochrane](https://www.whiteroseintelligence.com/Cochrane) on the subject of pandemic preparedness and her work with GloPID-R.[\[4\]](#fn4)
