Online Learning Resources related to Coronavirus disease 2019 | #COVID19


Hello, Everyone! My 16-year old professional career is marked by my experiences of working for disaster risk management, humanitarian response and community preparedness & resilience in the Himalayan region of India. For the first time in my life, I am actually feeling scared by the magnitude and intensity of a global emergency situation which has grown exponentially big in a remarkably short duration. The Coronavirus disease, also known as the COVID-19, is certainly the biggest threat humanity has encountered in the past few decades. As most of us are staying home, practicing social distancing and contributing our bit in flattening the curve, I believe it is a good idea that we learn about this relatively new challenge caused by the novel Coronavirus (nCoV19) and develop our capacities to deal with it effectively, not just now but in future as well. I have volunteered to collect the info on some really interesting Online Courses which would certainly help you broaden and deepen your knowledge about the COVID-19. Read more to explore these short, online courses and share the information in your networks so that others can also learn. Stay informed, stay safe. Thank you!
