In February 2022, the new day hospital for the children's cancer ward in Ouedraogo was inaugurated. The new building allows the doctors of the Department of Pediatric Oncology at the Yalgado Ouedraogo University Hospital Center to work independently. The construction of the new building was financed in part by the Regine Sixt Children’s Aid Foundation DRYING LITTLE TEARS. Far more children than before can be treated in the new day clinic. In addition, the children can now be treated on an outpatient basis. The need is great, as around 800 cases are registered each year.
