Doctors Without Borders at UVA

Club Description

Doctors Without Borders / Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) is an international NGO that provides medical care to people affected by armed conflict, epidemics, natural disasters, and exclusion from health care. Because MSF believes everyone has a right to health care, the organization is based on the principles of impartiality, independence, and neutrality. As a student chapter, our goal is to raise awareness about humanitarian issues and MSF's work, encourage students to explore careers in global health, run advocacy campaigns, and fundraise for global health crises.
