Description
For almost 40 years, Médecins du Monde, a campaigning medical organisation committed to international solidarity, has been caring for the most vulnerable populations at home and abroad. It has continued to highlight obstacles that exist in accessing health care and has secured sustainable improvements in health-for-all policies. Those working for this independent organisation do not solely dispense care and treatment but condemn violations of human dignity and rights and fight to improve matters for populations living in precarious situations.
MdM currently works in more than 35 countries across all continents where it focuses on 5 priority areas: emergency and crisis, sexual and reproductive health, harm reduction, migrants and displaced populations (health rights), health and environment.
MdM has been operating in Myanmar since 1994. Its main programme delivers comprehensive Harm Reduction and HIV/AIDS prevention and care, focusing on the high-risk groups of Drug Users (Kachin State), Female Sex Workers and Men having Sex with Men (Yangon area).
Myanmar Mission strategy for 2020 to 2022 aims to “Increase the access to Harm Reduction services (especially Drug Users and Sex Workers) by addressing health, social, legal and normative barriers though a community-led approach and partnership”.
In order to implement this strategy, MdM is focusing on increasing access to HIV/VHC prevention and care services, in Yangon and Kachin, targeting most-at-risk groups (sex workers, men having sex with men, people who inject drugs), proposing a wide range of activities such as Needle and Syringe Exchange Program (NSEP), condom distribution and promotion, HIV Testing and Counselling, Hepatitis B testing and vaccination, Hepatitis C virus screening and treatment (in partnership with MSF-CH), enrolment of HIV positive clients into ART care, Sexually transmitted infections and Tuberculosis screening and treatment services, methadone maintenance treatment, Isoniazid Preventive Therapy and targeted Information, Education and Communication, community based overdose prevention and management and gender sensitive services. Current and future strategy is focusing as well on supporting local civil society and health system in scaling up and provision of health services.
MdM strategy is implemented in collaboration with the National Program and local authorities under the authority of the Ministry of Health and Sports. The activities are funded by the Global Fund (GF) and the Agence Française de Développement (AFD).
