Abstract

The overall objective of the project was to support preparedness and response to primary and secondary impacts of COVID-19 on vulnerable individuals and communities. A two-pronged strategy approach expected to achieve this included i) building capacities of communities and health actors/facilities to prepare and respond to the primary impacts of COVID-19 and ii) strengthening health and markets systems to be responsive to the secondary impacts of COVID 19.
