POWER TO THE FISHERS

Project beneficiaries (fisherfolks) in the Awutu Senya District were sensitized on the COVID19 pandemic, and measures to prevent its transmission. The project manager, Derek Adabie, led the discussion on the spread and symptoms of COVID-19, as well as its preventive measures (which include practical ways of ensuring social distancing). He further carried out demonstrations on the appropriate use of PPEs, handwashing with soap under running water, and the application of alcohol-based sanitizers.

The activity ended with a donation of bags of rice, hand sanitizers, nose masks, and veronica bucket to the community. The project team with the help of community folks pasted posters of COVID-19 related information at vantage points in the community.
