Through the EU-IOM Joint Initiative, IOM supported the activities of the interagency taskforce for Risk Communication and Community Engagement (RCCE) in response to COVID-19 in West and Central Africa. IOM’s support included the development of an online library of community engagement tools (www.coronawestafrica.org) and an EU-funded campaign on Facebook. As of September 2020, the campaign accounts for an online community of 7,275 website users and 2,000+ Facebook followers from all over the region. More than 300 media files from working group members and external partners in over 15 local languages are available for free download, including video, podcasts, visuals and guidance.
