outbreak in Indonesia
Access to critical information and better understanding about the new strain of coronavirus
disease (COVID-19) is pivotal during the current evolving outbreak. Training can help limit
the spread of misinformation and rumour among the public, as well as support the medical
professionals who manage patients at the front line.
The global WHO Health Emergencies Programme has been investing in learning and training
opportunities to strengthen preparedness and real-time emergency response to the
international outbreak, and has recently launched several informative training modules about
COVID-19 on its platform in both English and Bahasa Indonesia.
The course “Infection Prevention and Control (IPC) for novel coronavirus (COVID-19)” is a
three-part series providing preparedness information on how health facilities can respond to a
case of COVID-19 including the correct IPC measures to ensure there is no further virus
transmission to healthcare workers, other patients and visitors in the facility. The modules
consist of a mixture of videos and downloadable presentations.
The dual language courses are both tailored specifically to support healthcare workers and
public health professionals to scale up activities for COVID-19.
Since their release earlier this week, the Bahasa Indonesia versions of the two health courses
have already amassed more than 3 000 enrollments collectively.
The free learning resources are available to anyone interested in COVID-19 on both WHO
Indonesia’s website and OpenWHO.org, WHO’s open learning platform for emergencies.
The OpenWHO platform was established 3 years ago to support emergency health scenarios
where WHO needs to reach millions of people across the globe with real-time, accessible
learning materials.

tenaga kesehatan, pasien lain, ataupun pengunjung di fasilitas tersebut. Modul-modul ini
terdiri dari media video serta presentasi yang dapat diunduh.
Kursus-kursus dwibahasa ini telah disesuaikan untuk mendukung tenaga kesehatan dan
tenaga profesional kesehatan masyarakat untuk meningkatkan aktivitas mereka dalam

Materi pelatihan bebas biaya ini tersedia bagi siapa saja yang tertarik dengan informasi
teknis seputar COVID-19, dan semua materi ini tersedia di situs web WHO Indonesia serta
situs platform pembelajaran terbuka WHO untuk kedaruratan, OpenWHO.org.
Platform OpenWHO didirikan 3 tahun yang lalu untuk mendukung skenario-skenario darurat
kesehatan di mana WHO harus menjangkau jutaan orang di seluruh dunia dengan materi
pembelajaran real-time yang mudah diakses.
