Introduction to Pandemic Planning 

26 November 2020

 

The Pandemic Response plan is one of many plans that a utility has to develop to ensure that services can be maintained during a disruptive event. The introduction to the Pandemic Planning workshop discussed the emergency planning and management framework and focused specifically on the development and implementation of a Pandemic Response plan for a water utility. Solomon Water provided their plan for use in the workshop as a template for the guidance of PWWA members who are developing their plans now.

 

This learning event is part of the Pacific WASH webinar series that serves as a regional platform to advance knowledge and learning in utility operations and the broader WASH sector practice.
