Abstract

Following the emergence and declaration of COVID-19 pandemic, BRCIS re-programmed around 5,5M GBP worth of activities for all BRCiS locations to scale up sensitization, health and nutrition outreach, WASH activities and livelihoods through the use of cash. The activities were anchored within a wider BRCiS collective COVID-19 preparedness and response plan.
