00:00:00:21 - 00:00:03:01
This project will especially strengthen

00:00:03:07 - 00:00:05:14
the resilience of this centre

00:00:05:17 - 00:00:08:17
regarding difficulties
related, for example,

00:00:08:20 - 00:00:23:22
to fuel supply.

In northern Mali,
power cuts
are part of everyday life.

But in Niafunké,
an innovative project
is lighting up the hospital.

00:00:23:25 - 00:00:26:01
The green initiative,
overall,

00:00:26:07 - 00:00:31:03
is part of MSF's strategy
to contribute

00:00:31:06 - 00:00:33:24
to limit the effects
of carbon emissions

00:00:34:00 - 00:00:35:05
on the environment,

00:00:35:12 - 00:00:38:21
during the implementation
of our medical projects

00:00:38:24 - 00:00:40:12
around the world.

00:00:40:15 - 00:00:45:07
In Niafunké,
solar electrification

00:00:45:10 - 00:00:47:24
which we are currently implementing,

00:00:47:29 - 00:00:51:12
will guarantee a stable,

00:00:51:15 - 00:00:54:05
sustainable
and clean power supply

00:00:54:08 - 00:00:57:08
for all services
at the health centre.

00:00:57:15 - 00:01:02:24
So the centre will have
a certain degree of autonomy

00:01:02:27 - 00:01:06:01
in terms of energy
for its operation.

00:01:06:06 - 00:01:09:29
This will have
a direct impact on,

00:01:10:02 - 00:01:13:09
not only the continuity of care,

00:01:13:12 - 00:01:15:20
but especially
the quality of care

00:01:15:22 - 00:01:17:22
at the Niafunké health centre.
