OUR WORK In the context of a worsening social and economic environment, MdM’s programmes in France, in Europe and worldwide came under pressure in 2010. It was a year tainted by a rapid rise in poverty and health inequalities for the most vulnerable.

2010 was pivotal to our Liberian programme. In Bong County since 2003, we have worked with a number of partners to strengthen the capacity of the local health authorities and support 16 health centres in the east of the county.

The speech given by the French President in the summer in Grenoble, which made a commitment to use all measures necessary to ensure “complete security” to address the problems in our society, and the recent Parliamentary vote for the gradual dismantling of State Medical Aid are alarming indications of the government’s approach to the most vulnerable in our society. MdM continues its condemnation of the use of medical professionals for security purposes. In 2010, we published a guide to medical ethics in the face of security policies, as we had already done in 2007 in relation to our position on DNA testing. In 2010 we also participated in the Delinquents Solidaires collective, called for signatures from healthcare professionals for a European Declaration on Non-discriminatory Access to Healthcare and, more recently, protested against the contradictory choice made by the Health Minister to
approve rapid testing for HIV at the same time as dismantling State Medical Aid and compromising access to treatment for the most vulnerable. ;(P"VV>%#6()&()(I/+"1,)#(0,2,0 Doctors of the World cares for vulnerable people in 11 European countries.

Over and above our work on the ground, we have prioritised setting up a European Observatory to monitor and document disparities in access to care at the very heart of the European Union.

Whilst this growth is an indication of our organisation’s vitality and ability to respond to the needs we see on the ground, we should take care that it does not impinge on our independence. Increasing our private funding in the years to come is still a priority. Doctors of the World is a medical organisation with more than 2,000 volunteers in France and 1,200 members who believe that, in addition to providing care and
advocacy, there is still room for activism in our society. This approach is one that engages members of society at the heart of an organisation that is acutely aware of, and concerned about, the emergence of new levels of poverty and exclusion from care for the most marginalised.

Throughout the 30 years of our operations we have been able to build strong ties around the world with partners in civil society. In an unstable world, responding to disparities that are always worsening, it is more important than ever to maintain these local links that allow us to understand and respond better to the needs of the people with whom we work.
PAPUA
Isolated and marginalised, the community faces a worrying health situation: life expectancy is just 50 years, HIV infection rates are much higher than the national average and the maternal mortality rate is higher than in the rest of Indonesia. Doctors of the World has worked in the Puncak Jaya region for twelve years and today is one of the few international NGOs to work alongside, and with, these communities, while respecting their values and cultural practices.

Delivery room in the new CB Dunbar hospital
A BRAND NEW MOTHER AND CHILD HOSPITAL WAS OPENED IN DECEMBER IN BONG COUNTY
Owing to the country’s extremely high maternal mortality rate, sexual and reproductive health has, since 2007, become one of the project’s priorities. The rebuilt CD Dunbar hospital was opened in December 2010 in the presence of Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf, the president of Liberia. This means there is now a comprehensive range of treatments, delivered by a specialist gynaecological-obstetric and neo-natal unit. This unit will also become a national training centre for obstetrics and gynaecology.

SOUTH-SUDAN THE BEGINNINGS OF A NEW PROGRAMME MdM remains very watchful of the humanitarian situation in South Sudan. With this in mind, in 2010, two exploratory missions were sent to look into the feasibility of a project in Juba, the capital of South Sudan. A long term programme could see the light of day in the future but the activities will depend entirely on the local political context.

Moreover, in 2010, MdM carried out a needs assessment in the Russian Federation, with the aim of developing a new programme to reduce the risks associated with alcohol consumption.

OVERVIEW OF PROGRAMMES RUN BY INTERNATIONAL NETWORK MEMBERS A SHARED GOAL: ACCESS TO HEALTHCARE FOR THE MOST VULNERABLE
Many of the national projects, carried out in 11 countries in Europe and in Canada, Japan and Argentina—as with the organisations’ international projects—work to improve access to care for people excluded from the health system for economic, social, legal or religious reasons, or because of their ethnicity. In 2010, the MdM network as a whole implemented !"#$"%&&'()%*"#(()+,') continents, with a total of 356 programmes in 78 countries: 185 international programmes in 64 countries and 171 national projects in 14 countries.
CROSSING-CUTTING PROGRAMMES Women and children The health of women and children is at the heart of our work. The programme to improve sexual and reproductive health of women living in the Matagalpa region in Nicaragua, set up by MdM Canada, projects set up by MdM Spain in several countries in Central America (Salvador, Honduras, \1-'%7-;-@<& -*& >%;;& -*& '(%& !2"?2-77%*& >"2king with street children led by MdM Belgium in Z-7-."&AO-;+@<&-#$&4L&O$O&_2-#3%&+#&^+#*(-*-<& count amongst the most striking examples of the network-wide commitment to support women and children.

MdM carried out several hundred surgical operations, distributed essential drugs and transported logistics and medical equipment. This work was facilitated by the international network’s installation of a logistic base in Santo Domingo. Medical consultations, nursing care and hospital transfers were arranged in six areas of Port-au-Prince. In Petit Goâve, MdM supported pharmacies, maternity units and paediatric hospital services.

WORKING WITH THE ROMA POPULATION IN EUROPE » INTERNATIONAL NETWORK
Doctors of the World remains concerned by the health situation of Roma people in Europe. The health indicators are testament to their poor living conditions—early death, pregnant women not receiving medical follow up, children who have not been vaccinated. These indicators are still rarely addressed, even today. There is another common complaint: the discrimination suffered by the Roma people, both in their own countries and in the countries where they settle.
In 2005, the European Union declared a Decade of Roma Inclusion for countries to work together to improve Roma integration.
But Doctors of the World works, above all, to facilitate access to mainstream health services. This is done by working with health professionals to improve the care they offer to this It had been believed that Romania and Bul- group, offering treatment with respect, recogaria’s entry into the European Union would gnising mental health issues, accompanying improve the treatment of the Roma migrants service users along the course of treatment coming from these two countries.

8#(CEBE-(&R"(1+%"+%&>()+,)'= MdM strengthened its work in the areas of sexual and reproductive health and harm reduction (working with people who use drugs and sex workers). This was achieved by rolling out two programmes, set to run for two years, which included a number of projects focused on these themes.

Sexual and reproductive health touches many areas of women’s health— maternal and child health, family planning, prevention of sexually transmitted infections and HIV/AIDS. Several MdM projects work in these areas and the organisation is keen to do more. In this area, a two-year programme focused on promotion of sexual and reproductive health was launched in 2010. Its main objective is to increase the use of sexual and reproductive health services in the areas where MdM is present. This programme encompasses 12 countries worldwide.
» HARM REDUCTION AMONGST STIGMATISED GROUPS MdM has worked with high-risk groups, including drug users and sex workers, for many years. The activities and lifestyle of these individuals makes them more vulnerable, and as a consequence, prone to stigmatisation. M#&2%*!"#*%&'"&'(%&$+5631;'+%*&'(-'&!%"!;%&+#&'(%*%&?2"1!*&5-3%<&O$O&4%?-#&*"I3-;;%$&m(-27&2%$13'+"#P& programmes in 1992. These projects offer a holistic response: medical, psycho-social and community-based support. They aim to reduce the risks associated with drug taking and to promote safe sex practices. Our experience in this area has led to an ambition to strengthen these projects and increase MdM’s presence in the international arena. Thus, in 2010 a two-year international harm reduction programme began. Its main aim is to reduce HIV and hepatitis infections amongst drug users and sex workers as well as working on issues to do with stigmatisation and criminalisation. This programme encompasses six projects across the world.

» TACKLING GENDER-BASED VIOLENCE
Fighting against gender-based violence is one of MdM’s top priorities. For several years the organisation has rolled out projects across continents, working to prevent and respond to violence against women. Over and above the care we provide, the projects cover medical, social and legal issues in order to achieve real social change wherever possible.

In 2010, MdM organised two events: a photography exhibition at Paris City Hall entitled Women, the aftermath of violence by photographer Lâm Duc Hiên, and an international conference focusing on gender-based violence at the French National Library in Paris. Several other forums and tools were also set up.

In 2010, the network was consolidated, welcoming three new members. Its focus was on advocacy activities and two workshops were organised to support the common advocacy messages of the network members and their national strategies. Several symposiums and events were also arranged to raise awareness amongst policy makers and the general public about access to healthcare for undocumented migrants and asylum seekers. Twelve countries launched a European Declaration calling for health professionals to support access to healthcare for all—this announcement was widely supported by health professionals and medical organisations.

Doctors of the World’s Observatory on Access to Healthcare in France was created in 2000 following new legislation which came into force in 1999 and 2000 (the anti-exclusion law, establishment of heal.6*%"')%**'(()#>+*'(3)2/."#08*.2#/)#>)?/2,'"(%4)1'%4.6)@/(8"%/*'3)"'/'=%4)#>)A.%.')B'02*%4)C20D).#).'(.2>E) to the reality or otherwise of better access to healthcare and to highlight potential gaps for people on the margins of these arrangements. This is an essential tool to help us understand the populations seen by Doctors of the World teams and enables us to see the links between their living conditions, rights and health problems. It also enables us to identify discriminatory practices and to see where the arrangements are not working well—as well as to highlight positive experiences. BEARING WITNESS TO BARRIERS TO HEALTHCARE FOR VULNERABLE GROUPS The Observatory helps us to develop understanding of vulnerable groups, which are often %H3;1$%$&52"7&"563+-;&!14;+3&(%-;'(&*'-'+*'+3*/&G(%& $-'-&+#3;1$%&-&*+?#+63-#'&#174%2&"5&("7%;%**& people and undocumented migrants. It enables us to develop, and make the case for, proposals from the perspective of our work on the ground. Doctors of the World can then lobby or inform political decision-makers and health professionals to improve access to prevention and to care for vulnerable groups. It also enables the teams working on the ground to have access to indicators with a view to enabling them to monitor and assess how their work changes over time.

ROMA » PROGRAMMES IN FRANCE
2010 was a very hard year, with a toughening of the government’s stance towards the Roma. This population has been subject to even more fear and pressure. MdM teams working with Roma groups jumped into action to highlight the health consequences of the new measures to evict Roma. MdM continues to issue reminders that these measures are particularly damaging because they push people further away from health services and voluntary sector support, they lead to gaps in treatment and make it impossible to introduce effective measures to prevent epidemics.

HEALTH AND HOUSING » PROGRAMMES IN FRANCE
Although there have been significant advances in relation to the right to housing—a fundamental right—with the adoption of the DALO law in 2007 (realising the legally binding right to housing), three years after the law came into force there are still more than 3.5 million people who are homeless or poorly housed.1 There are also another five million people who are in extremely insecure accommodation and a shortage of 900,000 homes—and all this in a country where the right to housing is written into law. The vast majority of patients seen by MdM are homeless or living in insecure accommodation.

SEX WORKERS
DOCTORS OF THE WORLD ANNUAL REPORT 2010
» PROGRAMMES IN FRANCE
In June 2010 the National AIDS Council confirmed that contradictions between health policy and other policies, in particular security and immigration policy, hinder work on prevention, harm reduction and access to healthcare. Access to healthcare and to other rights for sex workers is increasingly restricted, despite the fact that they are particularly exposed to sexually transmitted infections. Victims of violence and abusive arrests, sex workers, particularly since the Internal Security Law1 made passive soliciting a crime, often have to hide. This makes them less visible, more vulnerable and further distances them from health and social services—and making the work of support organisations more difficult.

MdM teams see people who live in deprivation and migrants, who come from regions with higher prevalence of HIV, hepatitis and tuberculosis. In France, migrants represent 47% of new HIV cases, and the number of tuberculosis cases in people born overseas is eight and a half times higher than that of people born in France. The prevalence of hepatitis B and hepatitis C is three times higher in the vulnerable people who are covered by the CMU (Universal Health Insurance).

BUDDYING CHILDREN IN HOSPITALS
ANNUAL REPORT 2010
» PROGRAMMES IN FRANCE
Many children, often from disadvantaged backgrounds, from France and elsewhere in the world, are admitted to hospitals in and around Paris for conditions that cannot be treated closer to home. Not all of these children can be accompanied by their parents. The Buddying Programme volunteers aim to ease the difficulties caused by this separation. The importance of the volunteers’ presence is recognised. The buddying programme has also been operational in French Guiana since it began.

PARTNER ORGANISATIONS Doctors of the World bases its work around local partners to provide links that will ensure the work we set up will continue. If no partners exist, MdM supports the creation of orga nisations, often formed on the initiative of, and based around, MdM’s local team. The partners gradually become autonomous and are supported for, on average, one to two years. The structures created in this way remain MdM’s natural partners in the region.

Thanks to this support, MdM was able to launch the harm reduction projects in Georgia and Tanzania and the reproductive health programmes in Mexico, Guatemala and Laos. In line with international commitments on the harmonisation of aid and AFD’s strategic direction, harmonised sectoral approaches are a priority for strengthening health systems.

An imam
“Women’s rights are not taken into account. For many people women only have duties. There is a failure of responsibility and people do not think about education for children. Religion says that God nourishes everyone. We must not forget that God also said to educate our children and to offer them a good standard of living.”

» ACTIVITIES For 17 years MdM has supported the Tanzanian AIDS programme in Kagera region and has introduced several pioneering projects. In 1992, the project took care of HIV-positive children and offered testing and treatment for opportunistic infections in hospital and via home-based care. The programme also included awareness-raising activities on prevention methods and protection against HIV/AIDS. In 1997, a local NGO, TADEPA, was created to take over the community-based activities. At the time it was supported by MdM, but has since become independent. In 1999, MdM expanded the programme to include a pilot project on prevention of mother-to-child transmission. Since 2004, the programme has provided antiretrovirals to the 840,000 inhabitants of three districts. In 2010, MdM withdrew from this region and carried out a study to identify the good practices which can be shared with other HIV/AIDS programmes.
» RESULTS Between 2007 and 2010, around 63,000 women were tested and more than 1,400 pregnant women received prophylactic care and more than 2,100 received antiretroviral treatment.
» OUTLOOK At the same time as the Kagera project was drawing to an end, an exploratory mission in Dar esSalaam evaluated the needs of drug users in relation to HIV/AIDS. This led to the launch of a harm reduction project in the town, a place particularly affected by the increase in drug use.

Prevention and treatment programme for people living with HIV
The programme is developed in partnership with the health services of Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City. It aims to prevent and reduce the risks at injection sites and places of prostitution, thanks to peer educators who instruct and raise awareness, distribute condoms and needles, and who offer anonymous and free screening. Medical treatment is also provided for those who test positive. Patients have access to antiretrovirals and treatment for opportunistic infections. _+#-;;L<& 7"2%& ?%#%2-;& *1!!"2'& +*& +#& !;-3%& 5"2& !-'+%#'*& "#& -& !*L3("*"3+-;& ;%=%;<& +#& "2$%2& '"& 6?('& against prejudice.

“I am glad that I did the MdM training. I now feel that I am able to pass on the information and skills that I learned to my colleagues. Certain people have told me that, despite 25 years experience in healthcare, they have discovered, with MdM, techniques that they did not know before.”

Mental health and psychological support for refugees
MdM’s programme takes place in two refugee camps, with provision of psychiatric and psychological consultations in UNRWA clinics. The focus is on expanding the scope of mental health training, started in 2009, for the UNRWA and Palestinian Red Crescent health workers, as well as training for local organisations’ support workers. The objective is to enable early detection of patients, and to refer patients and help them to reintegrate into society once their condition has improved.
