Senegal and COVID-19.

Our community-led development model focuses on empowering people to create strong systems and community resilience, which is a supportive framework for ending hunger, and also for supporting people in crisis. 

In Senegal, trained local leaders are working to ensure their communities are able to meet their basic needs, including stopping the spread of COVID-19. They have developed radio broadcasts about food security and public health that are estimated to reach 382,000 people. They also leveraged village-level public address systems to deliver 512 public addresses over the course of the first year of the pandemic.
