Women sing

Community members sing at the opening of a border information center in West Africa. In the continuing effort to facilitate West Africa inter-regional trade, USAID has supported the opening of several Border Information Centers. The Centers, located at the borders of Ghana and Togo; Ghana and Burkina Faso; and now Benin and Nigeria, bring transport information and assistance to traders, and truck drivers, and allows them to more easily transport goods and needed commodities across borders.
