CoDRRAAn introduction to guidance issued by WHO, UNICEF and IFRC during COVID-19.
WHO, UNICEF and the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies issued guidance on protecting children and operating schools safely during COVID-19. The Japanese article introduces the translated materials for school leaders, teachers, parents and children.
The guidance discusses how schools can help prevent infection while supporting children's well-being and keeping education going. It recognises that children themselves can share information about prevention with their families, schools and communities.
