Devex: Adapting humanitarian aid during COVID-19: 3 country directors explain
“When the coronavirus hit Burkina Faso in March and spread quickly across the country, many aid groups were torn about what to do. … As global COVID-19 policies shifted daily with new discoveries about the virus and ways of handling it, aid groups on the ground were inundated with information from headquarters about protocols and best practices. … Devex spoke with three country directors from different aid groups, all based in the capital, Ouagadougou, about how they adapted in the face of COVID-19 and how they continue to deal with challenges as the virus evolves…” (Mednick, 7/15).
