The Italian Bishops’ Conference (CEI) is providing financial backing for a project to offer maternity care for pregnant women in Tanzania.
Several representatives from the Catholic University of the Sacred Heart and the Agostino Gemelli University Polyclinic Foundation IRCCS are visiting the future clinic site in Dodoma on January 27 to February 5.
The project focuses on enhancing socio-health activities and infrastructure in East Africa, and is part of a wider project to provide high-quality medical care.
The mission aims to improve St. Gemma Hospital in Dodoma, providing consulting and training.
It will see the construction of a new Maternity department, including an Operating Room and Delivery Room.
The Gemelli Foundation’s Gynecology and Obstetrics Area, led by Prof. Antonio Lanzone, will contribute to the facility’s development.
