1. Mobilizing a collaborative response between the social sector, governments and business. 

2. Generating COVID-related support for civil society organizations around the world. 

3. Influencing policy through concrete recommendations and evidence-based knowledge.

4. Identifying opportunities for investments and funding on systems-changing interventions.
