Adapter la gestion de la pandémie aux populations vulnérables [Translation: Adapting the management of the pandemic to vulnerable populations]

Pandemics do not affect all populations the same. Vulnerable populations, such as those living in informal settings or working in the informal economy, are particularly vulnerable to the economic, social and health consequences of pandemics. Dr Mohammed Amidu, winner of the AXA Fund for Research at the University of Ghana, will study the impact of global pandemics on vulnerable populations in Ghana and elsewhere and seek to identify the most effective ways to improve their social and economic well-being during and after pandemics. The project aims to make a significant contribution to global pandemic preparedness and mitigation strategies designed to protect highly vulnerable populations in developing countries from the extreme adverse effects of global pandemics such as Covid-19.
