OUR MISSION
Doctors of the World is an international medical development NGO and part of an international network. We provide medical assistance to vulnerable groups in Belgium and around the world.
We want universal health coverage where everyone has access to care, without barriers (financial, cultural, geographical, etc.).
To successfully carry out our mission, we rely on three pillars:
- Providing care : giving populations real access to healthcare.
- Change : more than helping, we want to change things in the long term.
- Bearing witness : we do not remain silent. Thanks to our experience and our presence on the ground, we challenge the authorities (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.
