The COVID-19 submission for refugees from Western Sahara in camps in Algeria presents the strategy to respond to the public health needs and immediate humanitarian consequences of the epidemic in other sectors including education, food security, protection, and water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH). This strategy aligns the collective efforts of the humanitarian community, including UN humanitarian agencies and I/NGOs to support the refugee community in managing the impact of COVID-19. This submission seeks to mobilize support to implement the most urgent and critical activities over the next three months, and sometimes beyond, in exceptional cases.
