Subject: Provision of quality healthcare services through upgrading health facility.
Through a participatory community consultation process, the Moqokori community in Moqokori District,
Hiraan, Hirshabelle State of Somalia prioritized the Upgrading of Moqokori Health center in order
Mothers, children, elderly people and every member in the community get access to primary healthcare
services as the nearest village with health facility is Beledweyne located around 165 kilometers.
Moqokori district is in the Hiraan region of Hirshabelle state of Somalia with an estimated population of
5,000 households. Additionally, there are over six 8 smaller villages that depend on Moqokori for service
delivery. It is located on the 165 km southeast of Beledweyne. It shares a border with Adan Yabaal in the
Middle Shabelle region, approximately 39 km to the east, and Galcad in Galgaduud, about 58 km to the
northeast.The community infrastructure in the Moqokori currently are one Primary and secondary school,
a borehole and admin block .
The Moqokori community has shown great interest in participating in the co-funding mechanism, where
the community will co-fund the activity, they prioritized during the inclusive community consultation
process with an agreed ration (1:5). The community in this district has no previous experience in co
funding mechanism and it is their first time to experience this opportunity. Thus far, communities have
established a district Project Implementation Unit (DPIU) representing different sectors in the
community, and they will lead the implementation of the selected priorities from fundraising to
completion of the construction of the health center. For the co-funding mechanism, Moqokori
community will raise $30,000, and the project will match it with $150,000 in the ratio of 1 to 5. The total
project cost estimated is $180,000.
The project identification is a decision the community has unanimously reached together with the local
Administration, as this contributes to both social cohesions, and improves access to primary healthcare
service. The community committees attended the participatory planning process and local fundraising
training to empower and transfer skills to the selected District project implementation unit.
Thank you for contributing towards improving access to primary healthcare through joint fundraising that
will promote social cohesion of the district through the construction of the health post.
