With over $8 million in funding from the Korea International Cooperation Agency (KOICA), UNOPS helped remodel an existing hospital building to improve its maternal and neonatal health services.

With a 357-bed capacity, four operating theatres, new medical vehicles, equipment and furniture, the Korea-Sri Lanka Friendship Hospital has almost doubled the provision of obstetrics, gynecological and neonatal services in the area. Deliveries of newborns have already increased from approximately 200 a month in the previous hospital to 400 a month in the new facilities.
