United Nations in Solidarity with Belize on COVID-19: On the Job and Open for Business

Following the indications and guidelines of the UN Secretary General and the World Health Organization’s (WHO), as well as national public health authorities concerning COVID-19, all staff in UN agencies operating in Belize will be required to telecommute and work remotely from Monday 23 March to Sunday 12 April 2020.

For UN staff this means working from different locations, using innovative technologies to engage with our partners and stakeholders. As we continue our work, the UN encourages all our partners to join us in using virtual spaces, this will help to ensure social distancing. Our staff will follow national advisories closely and adapt as necessary.

While UN offices in Belize will not be physically accessible to our partners, UN staff are on the job and open for business. For inquiries and updates, please see our agency contacts and updates on the UN website at https://belize.un.org

The United Nations in Belize confirms the promise of our Secretary-General, “As part of our human family, we are working 24/7 with governments, providing international guidance, helping the world take on this threat. We are in this together, and we will get through this, together.”
