Do you want to join an activist association and take concrete action for greater social justice?
Doctors of the World has been working for over 40 years to treat the most vulnerable populations, denounce obstacles to access to care and bring about lasting changes in health policies.
In France and in nearly 30 other countries, our actions are structured around six political battles:
- sexual and reproductive health and rights (including the right to abortion)
- migration, exile, rights and health
- risk reduction
- health and environment
- rights and the health system
- humanitarian spaces
The MdM delegations in Aquitaine and Poitou-Charentes have initiated, within the framework of the guidelines of the France strategy, a merger process during the year 2025.
This merger into a Nouvelle Aquitaine delegation will be effective in June 2026.
The Aquitaine and Poitou-Charentes delegations are currently organized at two locations (Bordeaux and Angoulême). They are implementing three projects:
- a care, reception and guidance center (CASO – Bordeaux)
- a project for ‘precarious workers’ in Bordeaux (digital platform delivery workers) and in the Médoc (seasonal vineyard workers)
- A health mediation project in Angoulême. The health mediation project in Angoulême was very recently transferred to local stakeholders; a diagnostic study is underway in the Charente department to identify avenues for developing a future project, which should be validated by the association in the fall of 2026.
