One of the goals of their development platform is to ensure universal access to healthcare, starting with improving access to medical drugs and encouraging research into neglected and poverty-related diseases. The Health Impact Fund is brought up as an innovative solution to address these challenges by providing incentives for the pharmaceutical industry to provide new drugs for neglected diseases at low prices.
