This infographic summarizes insights from the recent SSHAP briefing, "Key Considerations: Risk Communication and Community Engagement for Mpox in Eastern DRC." It presents social and political considerations for the design and implementation of vaccination-related risk communication and community engagement (RCCE) strategies against the mpox epidemic in the eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). Drawing from the SSHAP roundtable discussion on mpox in the DRC (May 2024) and a range of other evidence and expertise from key informants, the infographic suggests context-appropriate strategies for humanitarian and health actors to navigate the conflict-affected landscape of the DRC.
