Foreword
In 2023, as the world was once again shaken by devastating natural disasters and brutal wars, Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) worked to support people in need of medical care and basic services.
Alongside our regular activities, we launched emergency responses to powerful earthquakes in Türkiye, Syria, Morocco, and Afghanistan. We also assisted communities caught up in wars in Sudan and Palestine, and other conflicts around the world.
2023 in review
Conflict was a major driver of human suffering and vulnerability in 2023, causing many thousands of deaths worldwide and displacing record numbers of people. As in previous years, assisting communities affected by violence was a significant component of Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) programmes.
