A note about Covid-19

Our thoughts are with everyone affected by the virus and with all healthcare workers working hard to care after people contaminated by the virus across the world.
The virus does not discriminate by race, gender or status the people it contaminates. However, it will affect more severely the vulnerable, among whom displaced people & refugees - whom have, on average, a more limited access to healthcare, information and less opportunities to protect themselves from the virus.
Join us on Facebook & Twitter to contribute to raise awareness about the vulnerability of displaced people, and let's collaborate online to map how the coronavirus crisis is affecting displaced people's lives & how communities are organizing across the world.
