Global Communication and Community Engagement Response (RCCE) Strategy to COVID-19 - WHO, UNICEF & IFRC

A clear and integrated Risk Communication and Community Engagement (RCCE) strategy and response is vital for community uptake of essential public health and biomedical interventions to prevent and control the spread of disease. This strategy ensures dialogue and participation of all stakeholders and affected communities during preparedness, readiness and response.

This strategic framework for preparedness and response is to provide an overview of how RCCE coordination mechanisms are set up at the global level with suggested technical resources and approaches to stop further transmission of COVID-19 at the global, regional, national and subnational levels, and to mitigate the impact of the outbreak in all countries.
