Home - Doctors of the World

Doctors of the World is an international health and human rights organization

We provide emergency and long-term medical care to vulnerable people, wherever they are.

We strengthen people’s access to quality medical services, and fight for universal access to healthcare by advocating for sound evidence-based public health policy. When the crisis is over and the cameras leave, we stay for as long as it takes.

We empower those who are excluded

Around the world, men, women and children are denied medical care due to lack of resources or rights. Our mission is to provide care for anyone who is excluded from the healthcare system.

Indifference is a disease. The cure is ACTION.
