As part of its commitment to accountability, the G7 publishes a report each year measuring progress against development commitments made by G7 leaders. The Carbis Bay report sets out how G7 countries have taken a leading role in efforts to improve global health and tackle epidemics and emerging threats.

Since 2015, G7 member countries have:

• helped expand access to vaccines
• supported developing countries to train, recruit and retain health workers
• assisted more than 70 countries to stop infectious disease outbreaks from spreading

In 2015, following the Ebola outbreak in West Africa, G7 members committed to working with low- and lower-middle income countries to:

• build stronger health systems
• make progress towards achieving universal health coverage
• improve health security globally
