Thursday, April 23, 2020

Sean Kerrigan, World Vision's National Director in Rwanda, is joining the #SafeHandsChallenge. 

In collaboration with the Rwanda Ministry of Emergency Management (MINEMA) and UNHCR, World Vision is currently supporting vulnerable children and communities at Rwandan refugee camps in preventive measures against COVID-19. We're supporting over 93,000 refugees with provision of water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) services such as water supply, enhanced sanitation facilities and hygiene promotion focused on the prevention of COVID-19. We have also set up hand-washing facilities in all camps and transit centres and use behaviour change communications to sensitise and inform children and communities in refugee camps about precautionary measures against the virus.
