Vacancy Announcement – Social Worker

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.

Médecins du Monde (MdM) operates across the Occupied Palestinian Territory, delivering essential medical and mental health services to conflict and occupation-affected populations despite severe access restrictions and an increasingly volatile security environment.

The magnitude and severity of death, destruction and extreme deprivation resulting from the conflict and occupation have generated profound human suffering and humanitarian needs, including demolitions, military operations, settler violence and movement restrictions that continue to trigger displacement. The erosion of community resilience mechanisms has further intensified needs across all sectors.

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 7 Primary Healthcare Centres over the past year.

The evolving political and security context is expected to continue driving humanitarian needs, leading MdM to intensify its medical and mental health direct response while continuing to support the Palestinian health system despite severe and rampant access restrictions.

The MdM international network has 17 organizations (known as chapters). In Palestine, MdM Spain and MdM Switzerland also implement programs. MdM France works very closely with MdM Spain and MdM Switzerland.
