UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency, yesterday donated personal protective gear and cleaning products to the Ministry of Education to support hygiene measures as schools reopen their doors to students nationwide next week.
A release from the UNHCR said that the donation includes 5,000 face masks, 5,000 bars of hand soap, 500 bottles of hydrogen peroxide and 150 bottles of hand sanitizer to be distributed among schools across the country.
“We are working to ensure that our schools, our environment for learning is presented in a safe way conforming to COVID-19 guidelines for engagement and interaction,” said Alfred King, Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Education.
