Medicos del Mundo
Doctors of the World Spain
International non-governmental organisation. Based in: Spain. Founded 1990. Main sector: health.
Médicos del Mundo is an international and independent association working to make the right to health effective for all people, especially for vulnerable populations, excluded or victims of natural disasters, famines, diseases, armed conflicts or political violence. Healing is our first mission: the right of victims to be cared for must prevail over any other consideration. We not only act in the southern countries, but we also work with groups excluded from the welfare societies, especially with those with problems of access to the public health system. We do not intend to create parallel care systems, but to ensure that all people enjoy adequate health conditions. We also carry out awareness-raising actions as a means for social change and denounces the causes that cause injustices.

Payments to the organisation reported by the aid agencies of 17 countries (USAID, FCDO, BMZ, Sida and others) in their own IATI data, converted to euros at the year's average rate. They include funds passed on to local partners. Not all donors name the recipient of their payments, so figures may be incomplete; EU funds are in their own section.

Only the projects the organisation publishes on IATI: usually a fraction of its total spending (median 14% in our checks).
