“The COVID-19 pandemic will challenge many of us to work remotely”, APPCO staff said. We are rethinking our workplans, and developing new ways of connecting with each other and community members. At this time, strong coordinated emergency response leadership with strong health and safety measures are critical to make us achieve our goal. While it is impossible to anticipate all of the potential repercussions from COVID-19, we are putting our frontline community structures and beneficiaries at the center and supporting staff’s overall wellbeing through open and remote communication work to share about the increased risk of violence against women and girls during pandemic time.
