January 2024
About
The cholera epidemic that affected multiple countries in Eastern and Southern Africa in 2023 persists and continues to impact the region in increasing number of countries, placing a significant strain on communities and healthcare facilities.
To support UNICEF country offices in the region with response and advocacy efforts on keeping schools safe and open, a brief guidance note on safe school operations during cholera was developed.
