Book excerpt: The vision of the Defeating meningitis by 2030 global road map is “Towards a world free of meningitis” carried by three visionary goals: i) elimination of bacterial meningitis epidemics, ii) reduction of cases of vaccine-preventable bacterial meningitis by 50% and deaths by 70%, and iii) reduction of disability and improvement of quality of life after meningitis. The global road map, developed through iterative multidisciplinary consultations, paves the way to achieve this. It has been approved by the Seventy-Third World Health Assembly in November 2020.
