For more than 40 years, Médecins du Monde, a campaigning medical organisation committed to international solidarity, has been caring for the most vulnerable populations at home and abroad. It has continued to highlight obstacles that exist in accessing health care and has secured sustainable improvements in health-for-all policies.
Those working for this independent organisation do not solely dispense care and treatment but condemn violations of human dignity and rights and fight to improve matters for populations living in precarious situations.
MdM currently works in 30 countries across all continents where it focuses on 5 priority areas: emergency and crisis, sexual and reproductive health, harm reduction, migrants and displaced populations (health rights), health and environment.
Presently, MdM intervenes in the Northern part of Yemen in the governorates of Sanaa and Amanat Alasima. In southern governorates of Yemen particularly in Abyan, Lahj and Aden. MdM strategy is based on 2 key axes:
To provide primary healthcare services, including OPD, vaccination, nutritional care, sexual and reproductive health.
To provide mental healthcare and psychosocial support in specific healthcare institutions and via a network of CHVs trained in detection and community awareness-raising.
