UNODC Supports the Continuity of Services under COVID-19 in Côte d'Ivoire

Receipt of donations to the Interministerial Anti-Drug Control Committee (CILAD)

To support the continuity of treatment and care services for drug use disorders, PTRS / GLOK32 through UBRAF funds, following a webinar on continued access to treatment held in June 2020, supported the Ministry of Health in Côte d'Ivoire with the provision of personal protective equipment to services and centers and the procurement of a sewing machine to manufacture reusable masks for a community-based organization to promote the safe and secure availability of treatment and care services under the COVID-19 health crisis for people with drugs use disorders. The reusable masks manufacturing equipment will allow the Assouindé Therapeutic Community to maintain its care and to start income-generating activities related to sewing for the most vulnerable.
