The International Rescue Committee’s COVID-19 response is grounded in decades of experience responding to complex health emergencies and disease outbreaks, including Ebola in West Africa and the Democratic Republic of Congo and cholera in Yemen, as well as our global technical expertise in health, education, protection and economic wellbeing in humanitarian settings.

This report provides details of the IRC's coronovirus response as of Fall 2020.
