Preventing and reducing the impacts of natural disasters and health risks in the Guyana Plateau

ongoing

The initial REMPART project was extended and expanded to include educational actions in schools and to promote the development of epidemic prevention and protection behaviors from an early age. The regional cooperation dimension is central to this project, through the sharing of experience and expertise, and networks of regional stakeholders aimed at leading effective and coordinated action to reduce the risks of the spread of diseases with epidemic potential in the Guyana plateau. The project also seeks to increase regional epidemic response capacities by enabling French Red Cross services in countries in the region to increase their skills and improve the coordination of actions aimed at preventing the risk of the cross-border spread of epidemics.
