Abstract
Summary box Global health research collaborations and partnerships take time to establish and must be supported adequately. Bureaucratic contracting and procurement processes delay research and must be simplified. Contingencies and funding must be made available when the unforeseen in global research happens (eg, pandemics, disasters, climate crises and conflicts). We must balance the need for essential travel in this type of research with the need to limit environmental impact.
