MSF, or Médecins Sans Frontières, is an international humanitarian association that has been providing medical aid to populations whose lives are threatened for over 50 years. MSF operates in over 70 countries, mainly in the event of armed conflict, epidemics, pandemics, natural disasters or exclusion from healthcare. Independent of all political, religious or military powers, and with over 95% of its funding provided by private donations, MSF acts impartially, based on an assessment of medical needs.
