CONTEXT

Medecins du Monde’s international network, which was already working in Ukraine, has mobilized significant resources to meet the needs of affected populations since the start of the war. 

Medecins du Monde France reopened its base in Ukraine in 2022 and provided comprehensive primary healthcare (PHC) including Sexual and Reproductive Health and Gender Based Violence (SRH-GBV) and mental health and psychosocial support (MHPSS) services in areas along the frontline, a strip of land that separates conflict-affected people residing in areas under Ukrainian government control and areas under temporary military control of Russian Federation. 

MdM-France remains strongly committed to supporting the coordination of the health cluster by leveraging its expertise in Primary Healthcare, Sexual and Reproductive Health, and Mental Health and Psychosocial Support (MHPSS) as part of a comprehensive health approach. Our contributions focus on advocating for the needs of the most vulnerable populations in Southern Ukraine, identifying gaps in service delivery, and proposing practical solutions in collaboration with national actors, such local NGOs, health staff, and the Ministry of Health. We also aim to facilitate the coordination of various local and international health actors in the region and share innovative approaches, such as our telemedicine experience with a local implementing partner and harm reduction initiatives to improve access to quality healthcare, especially in isolated and hard-to-reach areas.

This position will be based in Mykolaiv, with travel to Kherson and Odesa as necessary.
