The world’s ambition to develop these tools as fast as possible must be matched by its ambition to ensure as many people as possible have access to them. · The ACT Accelerator will not be able to deliver on its goals without a significant increase in funding; it still faces a funding gap of 35 billion US dollars. · Today, the Facilitation Council of the ACT Accelerator met for the first time to provide political leadership and advocacy, and to mobilize additional resources. · An ACT Accelerator high-level event at the United Nations General Assembly will take place on 30 September. · Today is World Suicide Prevention Day. Every 40 seconds, someone somewhere dies by suicide. Like ending the pandemic, the key to preventing suicide is solidarity.
