Since 1968, Zhejiang Province has been sending medical teams to Mali every 2-years.

In 2017, the Zhejiang Provincial Health and Family Planning Commission dispatched the 25th Chinese medical team to Mali.

The 25-member team was stationed at the Mali Hospital (Hôpital du Mali or 3ème centre hospitalier de référence), which is located on the right bank of the Niger River in Yirimadio within Commune 6 and Bamako District. The team completed its term of service between July 22, 2017 and July 2019.

In June 2018, the Malian Government granted three "National Knight's Medals" to members of the 25th Chinese medical team.
