title: [Enlarged program of vaccination and community participation in Benin].
abstract: The lack of financial resources to make function health services and non implication of community in the management of the system is one of the major constraints to the improvement of health african populations. Within the EPI and to sustain its results, community financing has been implemented in order to focus on the resolution of the health problems of mother and child. The present analysis of the results of community financing in 166 health centers confirms the hope placed on this system which is one aspect of community participation. The cost recovery level of peripheral health services remains globally satisfactory. A better immunization coverage is noticed in the centers that benefit from this system compared to the others.
