Projects in Benin increase both healthcare capacity and ability to document births

Humanitarian Assistance Program Coordinator Cosme Quenum, a local national with the U.S. Embassy in Cotonou, Benin, turns over the keys of a newly constructed health clinic to local officials in the village of Godjekoara, Benin, at the end of January 2021. The clinic and various associated facilities also built with it comprise one of two similar clinic projects recently completed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers in that region of Benin through funding from U.S. Africa Command and coordinated closely with the U.S. State Department.
