The clinic have recently received a solar lighting system funded by UNFPA, as part of H4+, which enables them to see what they are doing both during the rainy season and at night. The H4+ (made up of UNAIDS, UNFPA, UNICEF, UN Women, WHO, and the World Bank) was formed to implement the UN Secretary General's Global Strategy for Women's and Children's Health and progress the health-related Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). In Sierra Leone, the H4+ is working on fundamental programmes to strengthen health systems, in particular reproductive, maternal, newborn and child health care, including the implementation of new training policies for midwives.
