In the midst of war, when healthcare systems collapse and essential services disappear, men and women continue to provide care. They stay, despite the fear, despite the difficulties.
But today, their mission is in danger, exposed to violence and extreme conditions.
Every day, five carers die for trying to save lives.
Where war destroys, they rebuild: they save children, assist births, stabilise the wounded, reassure families.
Together with you, we can help them continue their mission.
Let’s help them to heal. Let’s help them rebuild.
