Kabul, Kabul, Afghanistan
postuler

Description du poste

For more than 40 years, Médecins du Monde, a campaigning medical organisation committed to international solidarity, has been caring for the most vulnerable populations here and abroad. It has continued to bear witness to obstacles that exist in accessing healthcare and has secured sustainable improvements in health-for-all policies.

Those working for this independent organisation do not solely dispense care and treatment but condemn violations of human dignity and rights and fight to improve matters for populations living in precarious situations.

MdM France currently works in 30 countries across all continents to facilitate access to healthcare through 6 political battles:

  • Sexual and Reproductive Health Rights
  • Migration, Exile, Human Rights and Health
  • Harm Reduction
  • Environment and Health
  • Humanitarian Space
  • Healthcare systems and rights

Context

Afghanistan continues to grapple with the consequences of four decades of conflict, entrenched poverty, climate-induced crises, and barriers to equality. The economic downturn following the political transition in August 2021 has exacerbated underlying fragilities, including limited livelihood opportunities for both urban and rural populations alike.

In light of this situation Médecins du Monde (MdM) has reopened its mission in Afghanistan in April 2022 and is currently active in Kabul and Wardak provinces, implementing primary healthcare and nutrition projects. After securing the first funds it is becoming a priority for the mission to diversify its portfolio and secure additional resources to expand its coverage. In that regard the mission has recently conducted several exploration/assessments in various provinces of the country and is planning to solicit a range of institutional donors for the year 2025.
