In Papau New Guinea, where less than 1% of rural households have handwashing facilities with soap and water, WaterAid is responding to the COVID-19 pandemic by implementing a major national hygiene and COVID-19 awareness campaign utilizing diverse mediums (billboards, print advertising, radio, television, social media, and direct community outreach). WaterAid is also providing low-cost solutions for handwashing infrastructure (e.g. tippy-taps) and information on soap-making from locally available materials. In addition, WaterAid has partnered with the Disabled Persons and East Sepik Council of Women to create specifically targeting messaging for women and living with a disability. Finally, WaterAid is creating open spaces for communities to discuss approaches to tackling COVID-19.
