This year the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement is recognising the roles staff and volunteers have played in reaching and supporting people affected by COVID-19, especially in places of detention, remote parts of Papua New Guinea and hospitals in provinces where the PNGRCS volunteers are actively working.
In PNG, with the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, Red Cross staff and volunteers have supported local communities through awareness raising on prevention measures and providing hygiene and sanitation assistance for communities.
