EU aid for health care

    JOHANNESBURG
    The European Union is to give the Mozambican government an estimated US $38 million to fund the expansion of health networks in the central province of Zambezia, news reports said on Wednesday. According to Zambezia’s provincial governor, Orlando Candua, an international tender has already been launched to select a consultant who will advise on the building of an unspecified number of new health units, and the rehabilitation and refurbishment of about 30 existing ones. AIM said that currently, most of the health units were in the district capitals, many of which have the basic conditions to guarantee reasonable medical care to the population.
