The proposed Project would be implemented over a period of two years under the Fast-track CCOVID-19 Facility (FTCF) for a total amount of US$20 million and is organized into three components as presented below. Component 1. Improving COVID-19 Prevention, Detection and Emergency Response; Subcomponent 1.1: Strengthening surveillance and rapid response to suspected cases of COVID-19 Subcomponent 1.2: Strengthening risk communication and community engagement Component 2: Improving Health System Preparedness for COVID-19 and Component 3: Project Management and Monitoring and EvaluationThe first two components cover seven critical pillars of an effective pandemic response plan, as outlined by WHO . Specifically, • Component 1 will aim to strengthen country level coordination, risk communication, early case detection, isolation and contact tracing, testing, and response capacities (activities which mostly fall within the responsibility of the MoHMI Division for Sanitary and Epidemiological Safety and Control). • Component 2 will focus on strengthening infection prevention and control and cases management practices in health facilities (activities which mostly fall within the responsibility of the MoHMI Division for Patient Care).The third component of the project will focus on project management and evaluation and monitoring activities.
