WHO ARE WE
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 around the world. We strive for universal health coverage where everyone has access to care, without barriers.
In Belgium and around the world, our projects are aimed at all those who do not have or no longer have access to healthcare. In particular, they are structured around five areas: people on the margins of society, children in vulnerable situations, women, migrants or displaced persons, and victims of crises or conflicts.
To carry out our mission, we rely on three pillars:
- Care : provide real access to care for populations.
- 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.
CONTEXT
Doctors of the World has been in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) since 2002.
Today, Médecins du Monde implements development and humanitarian projects in South Kivu province to help ensure access to healthcare for the most vulnerable populations, particularly in situations of armed conflict. To achieve this, our teams work hand in hand with health authorities, civil society, and communities using a Nexus and localization approach.
In the current humanitarian crisis conditions in the DRC, Médecins du Monde teams are focusing particularly on access to quality health services for internally displaced people, women, children and survivors of gender-based violence, particularly sexual violence, in areas such as Bukavu, Uvira, Lemera, Les Hauts Plateaux de Fizi and Kalehe.
Médecins du Monde Belgium has also been working in Burundi since February 2025, supporting local associations. Depending on how the context evolves, if operations continue in the coming months, this DRC HR coordinator position could take on a regional dimension and also oversee the administrative and HR aspects of Médecins du Monde in Burundi.
