A 11 million Swiss francs international appeal for Haiti and the Dominican Republic

This International Appeal represents a distinct plan developed in close coordination with the Coalition to Eliminate Cholera in Haiti and the Dominican Republic in support of a ten-year Government programme developed by the respective Ministries of Health and Water and Sanitation. Working in partnership with and support to the Haitian Red Cross and Dominican Red Cross, this International Appeal elaborates on the Red Cross' vital role and responsibilities in efforts to eliminate cholera in the respective countries during the first phase (twenty four months) of the respective countries national ten-year plans.

This video clip captures the role of Red Cross in cholera response and calls for financial support to save lives by continuing to provide cholera response activities and improve the water, sanitation and hygiene situation across both countries.
