‘Barcelona des de casa’, the website with information, resources and care advice to tackle Covid-19

Over the last two weeks the call to stay at home has been an essential premise for halting the spread of Covid-19. The ‘Barcelona des de casa’ website is designed to back this idea up, offering people a resource with all municipal information and measures to mitigate the effects of Covid-19, as well as support tools.

The new website provides details on municipal measures to help citizens, with a special focus on those who are most vulnerable. Two main areas stand out: social support measures and economic support.

In terms of social support, the site includes full information on home-delivered meals, telecare, support for women victims of gender violence, housing, school dinner subsidies and shelter for vulnerable people. The economic support measures relate to the finances of private households, workers and companies, as well as support measures for culture.

The website also includes a care and support section, a series of tips and information resources for people to look after themselves and each other, hygiene and health recommendations to avoid infection, support phone numbers, updated information on other resources for collaborating, donating material and checking citizen initiatives.

The website ‘Barcelona des de casa’ aims to help convey a message of coordination between administrations to avoid infection and keep the health system working for those who are most vulnerable.
