Through the glass partition of the treatment room at the Rwampara Ebola Treatment Center run by ALIMA, a woman is reunited with her brother, a patient admitted for Ebola. This innovative design, pioneered by ALIMA, helps maintain this precious family bond while ensuring absolute health safety. By gently placing her hand on the glass, Alice conveys her affection and support, which is essential for breaking the isolation associated with the disease. June 2026. Credit: Elie BIGABA / ALIMA
