Global Alliance for Livestock Veterinary Medicines (GALVmed) is a not-for-profit livestock health product development and access partnership. Over one billion lives worldwide depend on livestock. GALVmed aims to make a significant contribution towards transformational change in the small-scale livestock health landscape by developing a portfolio of high impact products and initiating a range of private sector market initiatives operating at scale in the smallholder sector. We operate as a public-private partnership and a UK registered charity headquartered in Edinburgh. GALVmed harnesses the best available expertise and capabilities in academia, public research institutes and the commercial pharmaceutical sector to develop vaccines, medicines and diagnostics for the major livestock diseases impacting small-scale producers. In using an extensive network of partners to undertake the development work, GALVmed functions as a Product Development Partnership (PDP). A number of PDPs exist for human neglected tropical diseases, but GALVmed is the only veterinary PDP in existence. The end result of GALVmed’s product development work will be a comprehensive portfolio of smallholder animal health products. But for these to become widely available to small-scale livestock producers a second complementary strand of work is undertaken – market development. GALVmed’s market development activities are underwritten by the willingness of small-scale livestock producers to pay the market price for effective livestock health products (particularly vaccines). Small-scale producers’ awareness, as well as vaccine distribution and vaccinator networks, first need to be developed on a small scale in pilots and field projects. Once these have demonstrated economic viability, larger market initiatives can be developed to bring in the private vaccine manufacturers to achieve and sustain the scale that can reach millions of small-scale livestock producers. To further enhance the sustainability and scalability of its work, GALVmed works to facilitate better small-scale animal health policies to promote widespread availability of effective and affordable products. The overall approach is therefore a comprehensive and integrated approach which enables an efficient market process to serve small-scale livestock producers’ needs with these vital agricultural inputs. Transformational improvement in the well-being and economic progression of small-scale livestock producers. We will contribute to the transformation of small-scale livestock producers’ lives by: Understanding the constraints to animal health and how to overcome them; Engaging the animal health industry; and Ensuring awareness, availability and adoption of effective animal health interventions GALVmed subscribes to the highest professional and ethical values, which reflect sustainable impact on small-scale livestock producers through: Focus on delivery Integrity Responsiveness Commitment Innovation To view more about GALVmed's work, please click here.
