Support Community-Led Ebola Containment in Uganda

Using Data to Drive Faster and Smarter Response

Data plays a vital role in managing Ebola outbreaks effectively. Timely and accurate information allows response teams to act quickly, allocate resources efficiently, and adapt strategies as situations evolve.

Because of your support, we are strengthening data collection and analysis systems to improve decision-making at all levels of the response.

With your contributions, we have:

• Improved data tracking for suspected and confirmed cases
• Strengthened reporting systems across communities and facilities
• Enabled faster sharing of information between response teams

As a result, decisions are being made more quickly and with greater precision. Response teams can identify high-risk areas, prioritize interventions, and respond to emerging trends more effectively.

This data-driven approach is helping maximize the impact of every intervention.

Your support is turning information into action—ensuring that the Ebola response is not only active, but also smart, targeted, and effective.

Supporting Women and Caregivers in the Ebola Response

Women and caregivers play a central role in family and community health, especially during outbreaks. They are often the first to care for sick family members, making them particularly vulnerable but also essential to prevention efforts.

With your support, we are strengthening gender-sensitive interventions that recognize and support the role of women in the Ebola response.

Through your contributions, we have:

• Provided targeted awareness on safe caregiving practices
• Increased access to hygiene supplies for households
• Engaged women as key partners in prevention outreach

As a result, caregivers are better equipped to protect themselves while supporting their families. Communities are also benefiting from the leadership and influence of women in promoting health practices.

This focus ensures that interventions are inclusive and effective at the household level, where many critical decisions are made.

Your support is empowering women not only to stay safe—but to lead efforts that protect entire families and communities.
