Addressing 21 Century Challenges: Global Public Investment for the Common Good
Briefing Paper - High-level Thought Leaders' Working Group
5–7 June 2023
Having convened the Expert Working Group on GPI, which concluded that the principles of ‘all contribute, all benefit, all decide’ can be the basis for cooperation in raising and disbursing the significant resources needed to address common challenges, Equal is partnering with Southern-based think tanks and Wilton Park to convene a ‘political cocreation’ process to support the adoption of a new framework. The questions and issues raised in this Briefing Paper provide a stepping-off point for the work of this partnership. This is the first in a series of events and the insights and outputs from this cocreation process will be shared and linked with the work of other stakeholders and networks more broadly to support cross-sector collaboration and advocacy.
Expert Working Group Recommendations
The Expert Working Group on Global Public Investment (EWG-GPI) Recommendations is the product of an 18 month cocreation journey convened by Equal International, building on a global consultation. The Recommendations set out key pathways forward for the ongoing cocreation and realisation of GPI.

Concept Paper on GPI for Pandemic Preparedness and Response
Equal convened a cocreation process with an interdisciplinary expert panel to develop a concept paper on Global Public Investment (GPI) for Pandemic Preparedness and Response (PPR). This foundational work helped to advance the technical and political feasibility of GPI for PPR as well as GPI governance as it relates to other critical global challenges more broadly.

Best Practice in Consultation and Cocreation
Equal was born out of treatment activist and health equity movements wherein the principle of “nothing about us without us” is central. We know consultation and cocreation are critical to good policies and programmes, so we developed this best practice resource to help codify participatory policy and programme design and ensure that Global Public Investment (GPI) is cocreated from the ground up.
