Strengthening Cross-Border Coordination Between Uganda and DRC
As Ebola cases continue to be reported in both Uganda and the Democratic Republic of Congo, cross-border coordination remains essential to preventing further spread. Movement between the two countries is frequent due to trade, family ties, and daily livelihoods.
Because of your support, efforts to strengthen collaboration between border communities and health authorities are ongoing. With your contributions, we have:
As a result, communities along border areas are more informed and better prepared to respond quickly if symptoms appear. Increased vigilance is helping reduce the risk of undetected cross-border transmission.
Local leaders are also playing a key role in promoting prevention practices and encouraging cooperation with health guidelines.
Your support is helping build a coordinated response that goes beyond borders—protecting communities on both sides and strengthening regional efforts to contain Ebola.
