Over the past 12 months, Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) teams have witnessed the continuation and escalation of conflicts, such as those in Gaza and Sudan, where unabated wars have raged into a second year. Our teams were also there for people and families seeking safety throughout the year, whether at the Mexico border or onboard our search and rescue ship in the Mediterranean Sea.
This collection of 65 photos, taken between December 2023 and December 2024, features the highs and lows we – and those we assist – experience as we provide medical and humanitarian assistance in over 70 countries. They show the breaking points – such as when we had to suspend activities in Haiti’s capital – but also resilience and joy, as when we witnessed a mother meeting her baby for the first time in South Sudan. These photos show how bearing witness can create a point of connection.
Medical care provides relief in the most difficult of circumstances, and we remain inspired by our staff’s commitment to deliver this care to people, even as the obstacles to doing so increase around us.
