Description

The project aims at supporting the government of Niger in its COVID-19 health response plan. This includes acquisition of medicines, medical equipment and supplies, logistics, as well as the strengthening of the medical health system with pandemic preparedness interventions.

Objectifs

The project is supporting the "Plan de preparation et de réponse au nouveau Coronavirus (COVID-19)" of the Nigerien Government to fight COVID-19. The COVID-19 pandemic is anticipated to trigger severe shortages in the epidemiological area, healthcare services delivery and supply of critical consumables in an already under-financed and overstretched health sector. The project is key, first, to save human lives and second, to prepare the system for a likely possible further escalation and spread of the COVID-19 pandemic in Niger.
