The COVID-19 Communication Network (CCN) curates high-quality communication materials, tools, and resources from global partners to address the COVID-19/Coronavirus pandemic. A project of READY consortium member the Johns Hopkins Center for Communication Programs, the CCN is intended primarily for social and behavior change (SBC) and risk communication and community engagement (RCCE) professionals, but is available to anyone in need of COVID-19 communication materials.CCN curates essential, evidence-informed tools and resources to help health and development professionals use social and behavior change communication (SBCC) to address the global pandemic of COVID-19 through four key strategies:

Clear and engaging communication of the facts about prevention, treatment, care, and support
Reduction of stigma against those infected and those being blamed for infecting
Busting myths and misconceptions
Accessing promising approaches from around the world

The collection of more than 300 resources is searchable and filterable by resource type, topic, audience, country/region, source, and language.
