WHO WE ARE
Doctors of the World is an international medical development NGO that is part of an international network. We provide medical assistance to vulnerable groups in Belgium and in the rest of the world. We want universal health care coverage where every person has access to care, without barriers.
In Belgium and around the world, our projects are aimed at all people who have no or no access to health care. In particular, they are structured in five axes: people on the margins of society, children in vulnerable situations, women, etc, migrant or displaced persons and victims of crises or conflicts.
To carry out our mission, we rely on three pillars :
- Heal : give real access to care to the population.
- Change : more than helping, we want to change things in the long run.
- Testify : we do not remain silent. Thanks to our experience and our presence on the ground, we challenge the powers (local, regional and (inter)national) with facts, figures and realities.
Our projects follow a series of values common to our entire organization: Social justice, Empowerment, Independence, Commitment, Balance.
