Our team and volunteer at the districts level have worked with local administration to spread awareness among marginalized communities on the need to maintain, social distancing, adhering strict lock down and hygiene practices to stop the spread of the disease. We have also provided immediate supplies of masks, dry ration, and sanitation material.
More than 5000 families who are living in the slums and are daily wagers are supported directly and impacted more than 18000 individual indirectly.
Our supply of support materials have been focused on the households dependent on the informal economy, who are at most risk as social distancing is an almost insurmountable challenge for them, and the lock down has led to an immediate stop to work and income, and they have little if any resources to cope with the lockdown.
What we needed for protecting communities from corona virus is to encourage and enable people to regularly wash hands and follow hygienic practices, which is challenging when the localities and homes where vulnerable communities live in make the practice of “social distancing” impossible.
