	Social Science in Humanitarian Action Key considerations: Ebola preparedness and readiness in Goma, DRC Peyton, D.; I. Gercama and J. Bedford Social Science in Humanitarian Action: A Communication for Development Platform (2019) C1 View PDF(382) Download (256) Add to my MEDBOX This brief summarises key considerations about the social, political and economic context of Goma in relation to the outbreak of Ebola in the DRC as of March 2019. Goma is the administrative capital of North Kivu province and a major urban centre in the Great Lakes Region. The city is home to an estimated 1.5 million people and serves as an important economic and transportation hub that links eastern Congo to the broader East African sub-region. The arrival of Ebola in Goma would substantially increase the at-risk population and heighten the potential for cross-border transmission to neighbouring countries, particularly Rwanda. This brief therefore focuses on local social and political structures that can be leveraged to promote preparedness and readiness actions Tags: ebola, outbreak control, outbreak preparedness, Report, DRC, cross-border migration, Source: https://reliefweb.int/sites/reliefweb.in
