Job Description

The year 2020 has experienced one of the worst pandemics of all the time. Covid-19 viral disease spread across globe where Afghanistan was not an exception.  Afghanistan like other countries tried to provide emergency response to manage COVID-19 affected patients including public awareness raising interventions and other mitigating measures to reduce the burden of disease among Afghan population.

Afghanistan happens to be one of the countries eligible to receive such support.
