1. Introduction
The Netherlands Red Cross is looking for a graphic designer to ensure the layout of a baseline report for the ECHO PPP project in Uganda looks good and is easy to read.
2. Context and background
Uganda Red Cross Society (URCS) and Netherlands Red Cross Society (NLRCS) implemented a baseline activity for the Pilot Programmatic Partnership Project in Kapchorwa and Kween districts with priority for high risk and vulnerable sub-counties prone to epidemics and pandemics. The longer-term ambition is that Uganda has a well-functioning multi-hazard preparedness and response system from the national to the district and village level ensuring and strengthening, linkages between Early warning/Early action (EW/EA) resulting in timely and effective preparedness, anticipatory action (forecast-based: before, and as an immediate response to hazard impact) and response. In addition, the URCS branch and headquarters are targeted for institutional capacity.
A baseline survey was conducted to determine the knowledge, attitude, and practices of communities (village level) on epidemics including Ebola, Cholera, Yellow fever COVID-19 as well as hygiene. The findings will guide further implementation of activities aligned to the indicator performance addressing the pillar of Epidemic and pandemic preparedness and response.
