Summary
In April 2020, LBG, supported by Amplio Network-USA, launched a COVID-19 awareness campaign in eight vulnerable districts of Ghana's Upper West region, an area particularly at risk due to cross-border activities with Burkina Faso and internal migration. This initiative aims to reach communities that lacked support after many organizations closed in March 2020. LBG is working with district health directors, local authorities, and community leaders, deploying Talking Books with COVID-19 information in four local languages across 207 health zones and engaging 78 community health volunteers, with a focus on communicable diseases.
