Equatorial Convention Centre (ECC) was a convention centre located in Hithadhoo, Addu City of Maldives. It was specially built for the seventeenth SAARC summit which was held in November 2011 in Addu City and nearby Fuvahmulah island.[1] ECC was formally opened by the President of the Maldives Mohamed Nasheed on November 10, 2011.[2]
The ECC was converted into a 100-bed tertiary hospital by the Government of Maldives and was renamed to Addu Equatorial Hospital.[3][4]
