Since 2016, the government of Benin has been successfully rolling out the Insurance for Human Capital Strengthening (ARCH) program, a project with several social components whose implementation will eventually allow vulnerable groups to be protected from poverty. This project consists of an integrated package of four services: health insurance, credit, training and retirement insurance. The whole package is designed to lift people out of poverty, with a first pilot phase of the Health Insurance component of Project ARCH which began in July 2019 in the communes of Abomey-Calavi, Sô-Ava, Dassa-Zoumè, Glazoué, Djougou, Copargo and Ouaké, and the pilot phase of the training component which was launched in December 2020 in Lokossa.
