Over the past five years, Ebola has seized global interest in relation to the threat of widespread disease outbreaks. This note presents findings from a rapid review of the World Bank’s support for managing Ebola outbreaks between 2014 and 2019. The note is aimed at informing the COVID-19 pandemic response and future crisis responses. The review extracted evidence from a portfolio of operational projects and analytical and advisory work supporting Ebola-related projects. It is based on a study of project documents (such as Implementation Completion and Results Reports, Implementation Completion and Results Report Reviews, and aide-mémoire), analytical outputs on the Ebola response, and interviews. These findings can be helpful for those designing and implementing response programs to the COVID-19 crisis. Click here to read the note.
