Additional Information / Shotlist The Medecins Sans Frontieres (MSF) project in Bangassou aims to offer the full package of care to a large area with very poor medical infrastructure. It consists of a full reference hospital with 118 beds for the 200.000 inhabitants of the Mbomou prefecture, that is currently being expanded by MSF; as well as the strong support of three peripheral health centre activities in Niakari and Yongofongo, Mbalazime.

The project focuses on the main killers in the area: malaria, respiratory diseases, diarrhea. In 2016 MSF ran a multiantigene vaccination campaign that reached about 20,000 children, the first step before expanding its activities aiming at increasing prevention of medical problems for this population largely cut from the rest of the country.
