Description: The Pandemic PACT monitors
and analyses global funding and research evidence related to
diseases with pandemic potential, as well as broader research
preparedness efforts, and is equipped to pivot in response to
outbreaks. It collects, curates, codes, and analyses data in
alignment with WHO priority diseases and other selected
illnesses, including pandemic influenza, mpox, and plague.
Pandemic PACT aims to guide policy and decision-making for
research funders, policymakers, researchers, multilateral
agencies. The database is publicly available for download from
its website and from Figshare. This package interfaces with the
project's Figshare repository to provide programmatic access to
the database along with other data products provided by the
project.
