103 programmes in 30 cities and towns

In France, access to care for the neediest is increasingly difficult. Médecins du Monde implements solutions specific to these groups: health care facilities providing a medical and social centre but also mobile activities designed to go out to meet the  most excluded people where they live (streets, Roma  camps, squatter settlements etc.). MdM operates in France through a network of 15 regional delegations.
