25 April Update: Aide et Action’s Global Coronavirus Response Activities

April 25, 2020 by Aide et Action Southeast Asia

To protect the vulnerable populations that we support on a daily basis, our teams are doing everything to provide an emergency response to the Coronavirus crisis. Each week, follow the evolution of our activities in response to the COVID-19 crisis. Here is the update on our various interventions as of April 25, 2020.

Wherever possible, Aide et Action mobilizes all its human and material resources to develop its projects in favor of the most vulnerable populations. Educating communities on prevention measures and providing them with basic support is our priority. In addition to the activities detailed in our special report, here are the latest developments:

SOUTH ASIA

In India, our teams have just launched a new distance learning app called iDream. This is intended to provide uninterrupted access to complete and appropriate educational content, allowing the holistic development of the youngest and the improvement of their academic and cognitive skills. By offering a range of learning modules not only in Hindi and English, but also in other local languages, including Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, Marathi, Gujarati, Bengali and Oriya, it even allows children from ethnic minorities to benefit from educational continuity.
In Assam State, as the New Year celebrations could not take place due to the COVID-19 crisis, Aide et Action decided to take advantage of the situation by encouraging the production of masks using the fabric initially ordered for the festive costumes. A fruitful initiative, taken up elsewhere in other forms by the trainees of our iLEAD professional training program. Thousands of alternative protective masks can thus be produced.
In addition, the support of our teams for migrant workers is still in progress via a food supply and the defense of their fundamental rights with the authorities.


SOUTHEAST ASIA

Many of our regular projects in Vietnam and Laos are still on hold due to strict containment measures. In these two countries, our teams are collecting information relating to the needs of communities in order to provide appropriate responses post-pandemic. Meanwhile, we have started to provide emergency materials such as soap and sanitizer to local authorities in Laos and to marginalized children in Vietnam.
In Cambodia, handwashing stations are still being installed in remote villages and food distribution activities are continuing with the most vulnerable families. Online distance learning is also being implemented to allow better care for early childhood and strengthen inclusive education. we are also working in partnership with UNICEF and Save The Children to develop a committee focused on providing accessible and inclusive education for marginalized groups.


AFRICA

In all our countries of intervention, Aide et Action participates in the global response of States to fight against the virus. This takes place mainly in terms of awareness, but also at the material level with the possibility of distributing hygiene kits or building handwashing stations in schools.


EUROPE

An emergency fundraising campaign was set up to support our activities on the field. To implement all these urgent actions and to best adapt our projects to this emergency situation, we need our most loyal support more than ever to help us!
