Guinea has taken a significant step toward bolstering its national defense and healthcare systems with the ratification of an $84 million loan agreement aimed at constructing a state-of-the-art military training hospital in Dubréka.
The move follows the promulgation of Law No. L/2025/010/CNT, signed into effect by the President of the Republic on March 25, 2025.
The agreement, concluded between the Republic of Guinea and the Moni Megueur Management Group on December 3, 2024, outlines the financial and operational framework for the development and equipping of the new hospital.
The total loan package amounts to $84,406,041, earmarked specifically for infrastructure development and advanced medical installations.
This military medical facility, once completed, is expected to serve a dual purpose. It will not only provide critical healthcare services to members of the armed forces and their families but also function as a training center for military medical personnel.
By offering comprehensive medical education and hands-on clinical experience, the hospital aims to significantly improve the capacity and preparedness of Guinea’s military health workforce.
Government officials describe the project as a “structuring pillar” for Guinea’s broader security and public health architecture. It underscores the state’s commitment to upgrading essential services for the armed forces while also contributing to the region’s overall access to healthcare.
The ratification of this agreement signals the government’s intent to modernize military medical infrastructure and align it with international standards, particularly in light of increasing regional security demands.
Construction is expected to commence shortly, with a detailed implementation plan currently under review by both parties.
As Guinea continues to pursue strategic investments in national defense and social infrastructure, the Dubréka military hospital stands out as a transformative initiative poised to deliver long-term benefits across sectors.
