Doctors of the World UK
Doctors of the World UK is part of the global Médecins du Monde network, which delivers over 300 projects in more than 70 countries through 3,000 volunteers.
Our vision is of a world in which vulnerable people affected by war, natural disasters, disease, hunger, poverty or exclusion get the healthcare they need.
Through our health programmes and advocacy, we work to ensure excluded people overcome barriers to realising their right to healthcare. Since opening in the UK in 1998, we’ve raised £6m for overseas programmes, helped 7,000 service users here and fought for healthcare as a human right for all.
We work with and for:
- people in crisis, providing life-saving humanitarian healthcare in times of war and after natural disasters
- migrants in vulnerable situations, including by advocating for the right to healthcare across Europe
- people at risk of harm, especially from HIV and AIDS or hepatitis C, such as drug users and sex workers
- women and girls’ right to sexual and reproductive health
We believe that every person living in the UK has the right to healthcare, and we work to influence public policy and local implementation to reduce health inequalities and ensure access to healthcare for all.
