Contingency Fund for Emergencies (CFE) 2022 ANNUAL REPORT

The Contingency Fund for Emergencies (CFE) was established by the World Health Assembly in May 2015 as an internal funding tool to enable WHO to respond immediately to disease outbreaks and other health emergencies. CFE funds – provided through voluntary contributions from Member States – are pooled and fully flexible, allowing for a rapid and effective response to a broad range of emergencies often in 24 hours or less.
