Magi Group Response to COVID-19

Providing food, medicine and hygiene kits

We are responding to this pandemic through raising awareness on how to prevent outbreaks, and providing essential supplies ranging from medicine and hygiene kits to PPE.Due to fear of coronavirus, there has been a reduction in the number of pregnant women accessing ANC (antenatal care) check-ups and delivering babies in health centers.Essential PPE has been provided in the form of N95 masks, hand sanitizer, gloves, and surgical masks. Community awareness and prevention activities are being delivered, in smaller groups and at a safe distance.

Maintaining critical health systems

Magi Group is adapting existing programmes to ensure critical health services are maintained. We are working with partners to mitigate the secondary impact of Covid-19 in areas such as maternal and child health, sexual and reproductive health, gender-based violence, and non-communicable diseases such as TB and malaria: building post-crisis recovery into our emergency response.

Spreading information and health messaging

Magi mobilizes and equips partners and local people to transform community health and well being through media. Since March much of our project funding has focused on the Covid-19 pandemic, which for each community is a crisis on top of a crisis. Communities are being reached through existing relationships with local authorities and local women leaders are responsible for community awareness raising, by sharing key messages via megaphone alongside the utilization of radio broadcast, mobile hotspots and social networks.
