- description:
- Effects of COVID-19 in conflict affected locations
Particularly in the in the Central African Republic, the pandemic had effects in terms of travel restrictions for the project team and specialists in charge of monitoring implementation to support constituents in the field. This introduced delays in the completion of certain activities, such as field studies.
COVID-19 affected communication due to generally weak telephone and internet connections in the field sites. The latter affected the efficiency of remote engagement in project activities towards the end of project implementation in an already highly fragile context.
- administrative_issues:
- Weak telecommunication connectivity seems beyond the control of the RBSA project.
