CA-3-D001968001 2026-07-12T06:32:49 This initiative supports the maternal and child health centre of Oliga, which contributes to reducing mortality rates among mothers and infants in the health district of Cité Verte (Yaoundé II) by increasing the medical coverage of this district, one of the poorest in the central region of Cameroon. Activities include: (1) building and operating the maternal and child health centre in Yaoundé; (2) purchase and installation of the centre’s equipment; (3) recruiting and continuous training of staff; and (4) implementing health outreach and information activities for beneficiaries while liaising with existing maternal and child health programs and institutions in Cameroon. About 25,000 patients are expected to receive health services annually (15,500 women, 6,500 children and 3,000 men) at Oliga’s maternal and child health centre. Indirect beneficiaries are estimated at 350,000 people. Afrique Future Canada is implementing this project in collaboration with the local partner Afrique Future Cameroun.
