New Ibo advanced health care centre offers essential care to 41,000 people in Ibo and coastal areas

Refurbished by the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), in support of the Ministry of Health, the advanced care health centre (Type II) has in-patient rooms and an operating theatre, an upgrade and expansion of the reference health centre damaged by Cyclone Kenneth in 2019.

“The combined impact of the armed conflict and extreme weather on the most vulnerable has been devastating,” said Valentina Torricelli, head of ICRC Mozambique’s Pemba sub-delegation.
