This is the third activity report of Concern Worldwide's response to the COVID-19 pandemic in Chad, particularly in the provinces of Sila and Lac.

In recent weeks, and following the awareness campaigns on COVID-19 carried out by its team and its partners, Concern Worldwide has assessed the level of knowledge of local populations concerning the coronavirus and the means of reducing the transmission of the disease. This data will allow Concern to better adjust the communication messages relayed by our facilitators.

In the Lake Province, with the financial support of the European Union, Concern Worldwide has also strengthened the access to protective material to protect health workers against COVID-19, rehabilitated several boreholes in order to improve access to water, provided 5,000 vulnerable households with water, hygiene and sanitation kits and made the containment site of the Kaya department operational.
