CONTEXT:

Médecins du Monde-France (MdM-F) is an international humanitarian organisation whose mission is to provide medical care for the most vulnerable populations, the world over, including France. It seeks to stimulate voluntary commitment from doctors, other health care providers, and from those whose expertise in other fields is needed for its activities, to enlist all competent support required for the achievement of its projects, and to seek, at all times, to encourage close working relationships with populations in its care.

Palestine Context:
Médecins du Monde (MdM) operates across the Gaza Strip and the North West Bank, delivering essential medical and mental health services to conflict and occupation-affected populations despite severe access restrictions and an increasingly volatile security environment.

Since October 2023, Gaza has faced an unprecedented humanitarian crisis, with intensified Israeli military operations resulting in over 56,000 deaths and massive displacement of nearly 2 million people. The post-ceasefire blockade has severely reduced aid and commercial imports, worsening shortages and driving food insecurity.

Amid these constraints, Médecins du Monde (MdM) maintains a flexible medical and mental health response. Despite growing access restrictions, evacuation orders, and a shrinking humanitarian space forcing suspension and permanent closure, MdM continued its direct service provision in 4 to 6 Primary Healthcare Centers over the past year.

Since the Gaza ceasefire, military escalation in the northern West Bank has led MdM to intensify its medical and mental health direct response while continuing to support the Palestinian health system despite access restrictions, settler violence and Israeli military operations.


MdM Network:
The MdM international network has 16 organizations (known as chapters). In Palestine, MdM Spain and MdM Switzerland implement MHPSS projects in the WB and Gaza. MdM France works very closely with MdM Spain and MdM Switzerland.
