Roadmap
Roadmap to End Pandemics: Building It Together
Practical guidance on how to prevent the next pandemic
Having caused more destruction and disruption than any terrorist act or natural disaster in the last 100 years, COVID-19 shook our world and convinced the global community that we must do all we can to prevent another pandemic. But how? Regenerating our world requires a regenerative approach, and this Roadmap lays it out.
The multi-language Roadmap is a living, interactive tool designed by EarthTeam (formerly EndPandemics) for governments, organizations, corporations, civil society and individuals across the globe. It gives concrete, practical guidance on how to prevent the next pandemic. Use it, and join the global community that created it as we keep refining and jointly implementing solutions, on the path out of this self-inflicted Pandemics Era and into a more secure world.

Appeal to G20 Leaders
Reduce risk of new pandemics by addressing their root causes: three steps to global recovery and regeneration
As the world continued to reel from COVID-19, our leaders needed to find ways to prevent new zoonotic outbreaks. In 2021 the Vatican COVID-19 Commission, EarthTeam (formerly EndPandemics) and United for Regeneration convened a roundtable on recommendations G20 leaders could take up at their October 2021 summit in Rome.
The recommendations: 1) prevent the risk of pandemics from the trade in wild animals; 2) prevent the risk of pandemics caused by destructive land-use practices; and 3) establish a Planetary Health defence funding mechanism.

Stop the New Global Terror: Pandemics
Pandemics, a threat to international security: the case for a Planetary Security Program
Published in 2021 by EndPandemics, the Analytical Center of Excellence on Trafficking and United for Regeneration. The authors recognise pandemics as a global threat and recommend repurposing well-funded national security programs, linking them to environmental, agricultural and development programs to scale up pandemic prevention.
The paper argues that One Health is the best strategy for a multi-sector, global approach to preventing more COVID-like outbreaks.
