Our Mission

 

The COVID-19 Digital Classroom

The COVID-19 Digital Classroom is a collective of international organizations with expertise critical to slowing and stopping the spread of COVID-19. With over 50 years’ experience between us, including in epidemic response, community health systems strengthening, multimedia content development, online training, and language for effective risk communication, we are linking critical actors to help millions of health workers access the vital, potentially life-saving information that they need.

Community-based health workers have a vital role to play in preventing, detecting, and responding to the virus, while also ensuring lifesaving primary healthcare continues to be delivered – particularly in rural, remote, and vulnerable communities. These critical healthcare workers need access to high-quality and easy-to-use information that will help increase their ability to treat and support patients and to deliver health services safely.

The COVID-19 Digital Classroom was established to meet this challenge. We are dedicated to leveraging digital technologies and existing content distribution channels to ensure every health worker has the information they need to help their own communities, wherever in the world they are providing care, from city centers to the last mile.
