[Overseas Support Project] Congo Mongole Project 'Forfait mama (Mama Pass)' 2023-03-21

Congo ranks at the very bottom of the Human Development Index (as of 2021)


and its maternal, newborn, and infant mortality rates are among the highest in the world — and these figures continue to rise.
(28 infant deaths per 1,000 births; 846 maternal deaths per 10,000 births.)

What is the Mongole Project?
It is a project that supports three clinics operated by Mongole in order to reduce the mortality rates of mothers and babies.

 

- Coverage of childbirth surgery costs

- Support for prenatal and postnatal care by specialists at three nearby clinics

- Ensuring mothers are in the best possible condition for delivery, and providing necessary vaccinations after birth
