Sabin Vaccine Institute (/ˈsbɪn/ SAY-bin), located in Washington, D.C., is a global nonprofit organization that advances vaccine development for unmet medical needs and expands immunization coverage by strengthening vaccine access and acceptance.

In partnership with local organizations, governments and international health entities, Sabin aims to drive progress across the vaccines-to-vaccinations spectrum — from developing vaccines for outbreak-prone diseases such as Marburg virus and Sudan ebolavirus to improving the delivery of routine childhood and adult vaccinations on the ground.

Through its work to prevent the spread of vaccine-preventable infectious diseases, Sabin seeks to save lives and boost health outcomes so that communities around the world might flourish.
