This chapter presents a comprehensive framework for pandemic financing that spans the entire pandemic cycle..., emphasizing the need for timely, adequate, and effective financial resources. The framework is designed to support

Key economic concepts such as global public goods, time preference, and incentives are explored to underscore the complexities of pandemic financing.
