10 years after the Solar Suitcase installation in Monduli District, Tanzania, the lights continued to shine brightly and health workers proudly showed us the original fetal Doppler and headlamps. They told us they loved having reliable light and charging capacity and treasured their magic "yellow box." Thank you for making dreams come true!

We have successfully completed our first Solar Suitcase installation training in Mozambique! This is an important step toward strengthening local technical capacity and expanding access to reliable energy in Mozambique's health facilities.

Over 10 days, 24 technicians, including government technicians, took part in the training. As a result, Solar Suitcases were installed in 12 health units across Maputo City and Maputo Province (Matola).

This milestone represents far more than the completion of a training. It reflects strengthened partnerships, valued local knowledge and investment in a future where more health workers, mothers and newborns benefit from care delivered with reliable energy.

CMM REFORÇA SISTEMA DE ENERGIA SOLAR NAS MATERNIDADES

O Conselho Municipal de Maputo (CMM) deu início ao processo de instalação de sistemas de energia solar nas maternidades dos centros de saúde da capital, no âmbito da iniciativa Light Every Birth, implementada em parceria com a We Care Solar.

A intervenção tem como principal objectivo melhorar as condições de assistência aos partos, garantindo iluminação segura, contínua e sustentável nas maternidades, incluindo durante situações de interrupção do fornecimento de energia eléctrica.

No âmbito desta iniciativa, 15 técnicos foram formados em instalação e manutenção de sistemas solares.

A primeira fase do programa decorre entre 17 e 23 de Julho e abrange as maternidades dos centros de saúde de Chamissava, Catembe, Pescadores, 1.º de Junho, Albazine, Zimpeto, Bagamoio e Magoanine "A".

Prevê-se que a segunda fase de instalação seja concluída até Setembro do corrente ano, permitindo abranger todos os centros de saúde com maternidade no Município de Maputo.

Juntos, Vamos Abraçar Maputo: Cidade Bela das Acácias e Jacarandás!
