dc.description.abstractSummary box The WHO Foundation, established to fundraise for WHO, does not explicitly preclude funding from the alcohol industry, exposing WHO to potential influence by the industry’s conflicting interests. The WHO Foundation’s Gift Acceptance Policy also lacks transparency, preventing public scrutiny of donations. To protect the independence and integrity of WHO, the WHO Foundation should not accept any donations from the alcohol industry. WHO needs further resources to implement stronger safeguards against alcohol industry interference, as shown in its development of an action plan (2022–2030) to effectively implement the global strategy to reduce the harmful use of alcohol.
