Syria || Youth led awareness campaign Covid-19 virus

organize this initiative was driven by the responsibility students felt and obligation as Syria’s future doctors and pharmacists towards our societies.

“People across northern Syria lack sources of knowledge, and struggle from a high level of ignorance concerning unhealthily and unhygienic consequences.”

“It is our duty to share knowledge with those who lack and help with the minimal capacity and resources that we have.”

The idea came after a meeting between students who gathered at the beginning of the health crisis and brainstormed ideas to assist the local medical and NOGs due to the compelling needs.

The youth campaigners distributed pamphlets and undertook surveys about the level of knowledge people have about public health and hygiene.

Besides, the graduation year medical students establish an ‘infection supervision committee’ to observe the virus’ status and keep evaluating the needs for future campaigns in the future if the pandemic continues to develop.
