The COVID-19 Digital Classroom is a collective of international organizations who wish to provide access to high-quality healthcare.
Since populations around the world need rapid, coordinated, and focused support to tackle the COVID-19 pandemic, patients in countries with limited preparedness and response resources are particularly vulnerable to COVID-19. Sharp increases in COVID-19 caseloads are likely to overwhelm health systems in countries already facing shortages of nurses, physicians, and other health workers.
Community-based health workers need access to high-quality and easy-to-use information that will help increase their ability to treat and support patients and to deliver health services safely.
The COVID-19 Digital Classroom is leveraging digital technologies and existing content distribution channels to ensure every health worker has the information they need to help their own communities, wherever in the world they are providing care, from city centers to the last mile.
