Up until 2008, the lack of quality health services in Mopti had resulted in a particularly high incidence of maternal and newborn death. In response, AKF helped establish a number of cases de santé, built by the villagers, with the assistance of the Foundation, which supplied the architect and master mason. These health huts, staffed by community health workers trained by AKF, certified by the Ministry of Health and paid for by the community, have had an immediate positive impact: no maternal deaths and only one newborn death have been reported since 2008.
