8th UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon delivered a passionate speech addressing the importance of international support for IVI’s work: “Many people still die from vaccine-preventable diseases unnecessarily. It pains me.” He continued, “I’m really happy that IVI is in my home country, Korea. And I really thank you all for your support. Moral support, political support, but the most important support would be financial…We really count on your continuing support.”
