Medecins du Monde - France HQ / Doctors of the World
For over 40 years, M decins du Monde has been delivering healthcare to the most vulnerable, challenging barriers to access, and driving long-term change in health policies. In France and across nearly 30 countries, our work is built around six core missions: MdM, recognized in Lebanon as a major player in the areas of mental health (MHPSS) and sexual and reproductive health (SRH), aims to strengthen the national health system and increase access to quality healthcare. MdM supports several health centers in the governorates of the North, the Bekaa, and the southern suburbs of Beirut. Since the ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah on November 27, 2024, the situation remains volatile, particularly in the south of the country ; MdM is developing a response plan in case of further population displacement and will plan needs assessments if necessary. Since mid-2025, with the funding crisis and the end of two multi-year projects, the mission has faced a significant reduction in its activities and staff. With the support of headquarters, one of the general coordinator's priorities is to develop its sources of funding.
