Send us Fan MailTrish Newport of Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) Switzerland is Inside Geneva's first summer profile this year.“My grandma was a humanitarian she had worked in Malawi and I remember when I was about 10 years old she said to me, ‘When you grow up and you become a humanitarian, you should work for MSF because they really have strong values and ethics that you will appreciate,'” says Newport. Originally from Canada, she has worked all over the world, in the most challenging environments.“I worked a lot in acute malnutrition response for a number of years, including in Niger. It's hard to see, but you can really do something, for example a little malnourished child comes in and, if they get Plumpy Nut and proper care for six weeks, they become a fat little cute kid and they go home,” she says. Now she's at the heart of MSF's Ebola response, in Bunia, in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC).“It's not just an Ebola outbreak. It's an Ebola outbreak in a context with massive humanitarian needs, that has high insecurity and where there's ongoing conflict. We see the outbreak is starting to go into areas with high insecurity, where we hear about community deaths but you don't have access to them, to be actually sampling to see if it's Ebola or not, or to have a proper Ebola response.”The World Health Organization (WHO) says this outbreak is spreading at record speed.“A mother had her child, the child was sick, and then the mother died of Ebola. The grandmother took the baby, came to where our project is, and the grandmother died. The baby is now sick with Ebola, none of the family wants to come to the child because everyone that touches the child dies. It just breaks your heart,” says Newport. “And people here they are people and we are all humans and so I have a hard time understanding why we can't connect that way,” she says.

Recorded at the Battle of Ideas festival 2025 on Saturday 18 October at Church House and the Abbey Centre, Westminster. ORIGINAL INTRODUCTION Genocide, Holocaust, Never Again. Phrases that once conjured up only one image: the Nazis' systematic attempt to eliminate the entire Jewish people and eradicate Jewish culture, identity and future generations of Jews from the face of the earth. It was once held that the Holocaust was unique in its horror with no precedent in history. Can we confidently say this view still holds today? Today, the word ‘holocaust' is increasingly used as a free-floating catch-all to describe many geopolitical events or even general human evil. Even Auschwitz, a death camp designed for the genocide of the Jews, has been turned into an all-purpose symbol of human cruelty. The proposed Learning Centre to be built as part of the controversial Holocaust Memorial in Victoria Garden, next to Parliament, promises a ‘high-tech immersive experience', expected to last only 45 minutes, that will reference a wide range of other international atrocities, such as Rwanda and colonial-era massacres, with the aim to promote equality and diversity in general. More specifically, these terms are being applied to the war in Gaza – particularly since Hamas's attack on 7 October 2023. Israelis are increasingly likened to Nazis, guilty of war crimes and ethnic cleansing, or settler-colonists aiming at the complete destruction and replacement of Palestinians and their culture. The United Nations, Amnesty International, Médecins Sans Frontières and countless individual governments have proclaimed a genocide in Gaza, a claim strongly denied by Israel and its supporters who condemn the veracity of these accusations and what they refer to as ‘Holocaust relativism'. In a new book, The World After Gaza, author Pankaj Mishra brings together the narratives of both the Holocaust and slavery-colonialism, arguing Nazism is simply the logical extension of colonialism. The Israeli government, according to Mishra, is guilty of both. Celebrity social-justice activist Naomi Klein wrote in the Guardian last year that we are entering a new intellectual era, one in which people are openly asking if the Holocaust should ‘be seen exclusively as a Jewish catastrophe, or something more universal'. Klein goes on to argue that perhaps the Holocaust was not ‘a unique rupture in European history' but rather ‘a homecoming of earlier colonial genocides'. What are the consequences of this ‘dejudification of the Holocaust', as Brendan O'Neill calls it in his recent book, After the Pogrom? How can the public, especially new generations, understand the true nature of this industrialised act of anti-Semitic barbarism – and to even remember that the Jews were the targets – when the Holocaust is wrenched out of its historical context? Are authors like Mishra and Klein right when they say it is this very sanctifying of the Holocaust in Western history that wilfully ignores crimes of equal magnitude, including what is happening in Gaza today? SPEAKERS Daniel Ben-Ami journalist; creator, Radicalism of Fools project on rethinking anti-Semitism; author, Ferraris for All: in defence of economic progress Naomi Gryn writer; filmmaker Samuel Rubinstein postgraduate historian and writer Dr Jake Wallis Simons author, Never Again?

Send us Fan MailOn our Inside Geneva podcast this week, we host a debate on a key question: what's the point of foreign aid?“What's the point of mobilising taxpayers' money and sending it to faraway countries to assist vulnerable people? And how do you sell that to your own taxpayers?” says Gilles Carbonnier, former Vice-President of the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC).There are more conflicts and greater needs, yet donor countries want to spend less.“What's the point of mobilising taxpayers' money and sending it to faraway countries to assist vulnerable people? And how do you sell that to your own taxpayers?” says Gilles Carbonnier, former Vice-President of the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC).There are more conflicts and greater needs, yet donor countries want to spend less.Do we think some people's tragedies are less important than others?If a child is in pain in Khartoum, that's exactly the same as a child being in pain in New York or London. If a mother is grieving in Gaza, that's exactly the same as a mother grieving in Geneva,” says Chris Lockyear, former Secretary General of Médecins Sans Frontières/Doctors Without Borders (MSF).How can aid agencies better explain what they do?“What defines us is humanity, and humanity means we cannot stay idle when we see others suffering. We have to act and do something to try to protect them, assist them and prevent suffering, regardless of where this happens,” says Carbonnier.

The rapid spread of Ebola in the Democratic Republic of Congo has created a "deeply alarming" situation, the medical charity Médecins Sans Frontières has warned. Also on the programme, Scientists have carried out a large scale international trial on a test that could help millions of breast cancer patients be treated safely without the need for chemotherapy; and there are wild celebrations in the streets of the French capital, after Paris St-Germain successfully defended their European Champions League men's football title, defeating Arsenal on penalties.(Photo: Ebola prevention campaign held in Goma, Congo The Democratic Republic Of The - 29 May 2026. MARIE JEANNE MUNYERENKANA/EPA/Shutterstock)
The charity, Médicins Sans Frontières, has warned that no previous outbreak of Ebola has recorded as many cases at such an early stage as the current one in Democratic Republic of the Congo. The head of the World Health Organisation, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, has spent the day in the city of Bunia in the north-east of the country - the epicentre of the outbreak. In other news, it's emerged that Buckingham Palace was handed emails six years ago that appear to show the then-Prince Andrew was sharing confidential government information while he was a trade envoy. Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor is under investigation on suspicion of misconduct in public office and has consistently denied wrongdoing. And Liverpool have sacked their manager, Arne Slot, saying the club was looking for a "change of direction."

En République démocratique du Congo, la riposte s'organise face à l'épidémie d'Ebola qui touche depuis plusieurs jours différentes zones de l'est du pays. L'épicentre se situe en Ituri, où est arrivé Florent Uzzeni, responsable adjoint des urgences pour Médecins sans frontières – Suisse (MSF), afin de coordonner la réponse de son organisation. Il décrit l'ampleur des besoins, particulièrement en Ituri. RFI : Vous venez d'arriver. Qu'avez-vous sur place ? Florent Uzzeni : J'ai vu beaucoup d'acteurs qui sont ici pour apporter leur aide. J'ai vu une coordination qui se met en place par le ministère de la Santé, par l'Organisation mondiale de la Santé (OMS). Mais concrètement, il n'y a pas encore d'action très efficace sur le terrain. L'Ituri est éloignée. C'est long avant de pouvoir acheminer du matériel et des ressources humaines. Il y a une volonté que les choses changent, mais il reste encore beaucoup de travail à faire. Quand vous dites qu'il reste beaucoup de travail à faire, que manque-t-il concrètement ? L'exemple le plus frappant, c'est qu'aujourd'hui, dans Bunia, il n'y a plus de place dans les différents isolements des structures de santé. C'est-à-dire que si quelqu'un pense avoir Ebola ou a des symptômes, il ne peut pas être accueilli dans les hôpitaux, dans les centres de santé puisque tout est plein. Une des urgences est de mettre en place des centres de traitement, de pouvoir tester les malades qui sont suspects pour soit les prendre en charge dans le centre, soit les renvoyer chez eux, les libérer. C'est un problème majeur aujourd'hui sur Bunia, sur Mungwalu. Quand vous parlez de centres qui sont pleins aujourd'hui, de quel centre parlez-vous ? Je vous parle du centre d'isolement, de l'hôpital général de Rwampara, mais aussi des autres plus petits centres de santé ou petits hôpitaux ou cliniques privées de la ville de Bunia, qui avaient quelques lits pour isoler les patients. Il n'y a plus de place pour en accueillir de nouveaux. Parlons de Mungwalu. Quelle y est la situation actuellement ? La situation à Mungwalu est tout aussi catastrophique, dans le sens où le centre qui pourrait accueillir ces patients est plein, et donc les malades restent dans la communauté au risque d'en infecter d'autres. C'est toute notre urgence et tout le travail que l'on essaie de faire avec le ministère de la Santé pour rapidement augmenter la capacité d'isolement des patients Ebola. Combien de patients Ebola sont aujourd'hui à l'hôpital général de Mungwalu ? Aujourd'hui, il y a 24 patients hospitalisés dans ce centre. Les chiffres fluctuent régulièrement, mais clairement, il y a un besoin d'augmenter, de doubler, de tripler la capacité de prise en charge des patients ayant la souche « Bundibugyo » d'Ebola. Les cas suspects ont aussi besoin d'être hospitalisés dans un isolement spécifique. Nous avons aussi ce problème que les tests prennent énormément de temps avant d'être acheminés à Bunia, d'être traités. Les patients occupent des places d'isolement pendant longtemps avant que l'on puisse confirmer ou infirmer leur statut sérologique et donc qu'ils soient, ou non, malades de la souche « Bundibugyo » d'Ebola. Combien de temps faut-il attendre pour que les tests quittent Mungwalu pour arriver à Bunia? Il faut attendre plusieurs jours avant que les tests soient faits. C'est quelque chose de commun en tout début d'épidémie. Maintenant, les choses s'accélèrent et on espère que, d'ici à la fin de la semaine, le processus sera en place pour que l'on ait des résultats en moins de 24 heures, ce qui n'est pas le cas aujourd'hui. Il y a également deux signalements à Fataki. Selon nos informations, MSF déploie également des équipes pour des cas suspects. Nous avons des équipes qui travaillent depuis des mois dans le camp de réfugiés de Fataki, un immense camp de plus de 65 000 personnes. Nos équipes, avec celles du ministère de la Santé, ont participé à la prise en charge de cas très suspects de la souche « Bundibugyo » d'Ebola. Malheureusement, un cas est décédé. Actuellement, nous faisons le suivi des contacts pour vérifier si les patients, les personnes qui ont été en contact avec ce cas, développent des symptômes ou non. Nous avons monté un petit isolement pour potentiellement pouvoir prendre en charge les cas suspects. Nous appelons tous les acteurs à ne pas oublier les besoins de la communauté qui ne sont pas que liés à la souche « Bundibugyo » d'Ebola. Vous avez toujours des femmes enceintes qui ont besoin de soins, des enfants qui ont besoin de vaccination, des cas de paludisme qui doivent être traités. C'est un vrai besoin des populations de Fataki. L'accès à l'eau est extrêmement faible. Nous appelons tous les acteurs qui sont mobilisés dans cette réponse à l'épidémie à avoir une vision globale et à offrir des soins de santé à l'ensemble de la population.
On Sunday, the World Health Organization declared the ebola outbreak in Congo and Uganda "a public health emergency of international concern". We speak with infectious disease correspondent, Helen Branswell with Stat News, and Dr. Joanne Liu, a physician and professor at McGIll University's School of Population and Global Health, and former International President Médecins Sans Frontières, who led the international response to the West African Ebola epidemic from 2014-2016.

La maladie de Parkinson est une affection chronique neurodégénérative. Deuxième cause de handicap moteur chez l'adulte après les accidents vasculaires cérébraux, la maladie de Parkinson se manifeste par différents symptômes, parmi lesquels des tremblements intermittents au repos et surtout de la lenteur des gestes ainsi que des atteintes non-motrices (anxiété, dépression, troubles de mémoire). Quels sont les traitements existants ? Peut-on ralentir l'évolution de la maladie ? Quels sont les symptômes invisibles de Parkinson ? La maladie de Parkinson est une maladie neurodégénérative provoquée par la destruction progressive des neurones à dopamine et contrairement aux idées reçues, ses symptômes ne se limitent pas aux tremblements ou mouvements involontaires ou ralentis, qui surviennent après une évolution silencieuse, une chute de la production du neurotransmetteur dopamine, dans un premier temps compensée par le cerveau. Au-delà de ces signes typiques, peuvent survenir aussi insomnies et fatigue, anxiété et dépression… Des causes non définies Parkinson, une maladie associée dans la plupart des cas au vieillissement qui touche davantage les hommes que les femmes. En revanche, ses causes précises ne sont pas définies. Cette maladie fait peur, parce si les médicaments permettent d'en retarder l'évolution (associée à des soins de réadaptation physique ou de rééducation orthophonique par exemple), il n'existe pas actuellement de traitement curatif. Les symptômes de Parkinson risquent à terme d'abîmer la qualité de vie (en perturbant la coordination, l'exécution des gestes, l'écriture ou encore la parole… mais également en altérant les fonctions cognitives et les émotions), de limiter l'autonomie et peuvent avoir un fort retentissement sur la santé mentale.

Global Health Matters is the monthly podcast from TDR, if you like our content then please subscribe. We embrace the fact that public health and global health are intertwined and through our podcast we hope to engage with broader topics bringing together experts from across the globe providing a platform for wider engagement. For this episode we bring you a topic that rarely reaches the top of the global health agenda, that is the subject of the health of refugees and migrants. This podcast episode lays out the key issues for the listener and through our guests it builds an awareness to ensure this topic gets better attention in the future. Global Health Matters host Garry Aslanyan speaks with the following guests: Eugen Ghita Human Rights Monitor and President, Roma Lawyers Association, Romania RomaJust Reem Mussa Humanitarian Advisor and Coordinator of the Forced Migration Team, Médecins Sans Frontières During this podcast we hear the health experiences of Eugen Ghita, who was a migrant and he is now working as a human rights monitor on behalf of the Roma community in Europe. Eugen identified that there is a lack of information dedicated to the refugees and many language barriers. Reem Mussa from MSF is able to give us context in relation to the policies of the different types of refugees and migrants. Many countries do allow for access to health care regardless of the legal status of people, but not all, some may only provide for emergency healthcare. MSF promotes the importance of a separation between border control/ immigration schemes and healthcare access as some migrants without right to remain may fear authorities or deportation and so not access healthcare for that reason. Kindly note that this podcast discusses mental health for refugees and migrants, TDR would like to refer you to WHO guidance for those seeking further support.

Women and girls fleeing Sudan's war are describing rape, torture and abuse, with aid workers warning the suffering runs far deeper than the cases reaching medical care. A new report from Médecins Sans Frontières says sexual violence in Darfur is widespread, and many survivors remain out of reach.
The global landscape of humanitarian aid is facing unprecedented challenges, marked by increasingly complex, protracted crises and massive funding disruptions. How do organizations like Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF), or Doctors Without Borders, navigate this new reality, especially when core principles like neutrality are tested and government support is pulled?In this powerful conversation, Sana Bég, Executive Director of MSF Canada, offers a compelling perspective on leading through global crisis and funding disruption. She details the profound ripple effects of crises and cuts—such as the disruption in USAID funding—even on independently funded organizations like MSF.Sana shares her insights on:The critical mission to “bear witness” to suffering, balancing impartiality with the responsibility to speak out.The moral hazards of having to stretch resources to fill gaps left by others, and challenging the assumption that “growth equals impact”.The role of “hopeful optimism” in leadership, and the urgent need to disrupt entrenched mindsets to ignite a new era of truly equitable humanitarianism.Dive into this essential discussion about strategic leadership, maintaining integrity under pressure, and how MSF Canada is mobilizing global action in a world that is attempting to normalize the removal of humanitarian norms.
Médecins Sans Frontières (Doctors Without Borders) is one of the world's best-known and most extraordinary not-for-profit organisations. One of its core principles is témoignage – to bear witness, to share. Communication, therefore, sits at the very heart of its mission and as Head of Internal Communications, Eva Kongs leads efforts to communicate with staff responding to some of the world's most devastating crises. From an internal communications perspective, this is a challenge like few others. 130 different nationalities. A truly frontline workforce setting up field hospitals, mobile clinics and improving sanitation in disaster zones. And an extraordinary range of roles – from medical professionals to drivers, accountants to anthropologists, fundraisers to architects. In this special episode, Katie Macaulay and Eva (a long-time Internal Comms Podcast fan) discuss transcreation, how print at Médecins Sans Frontières has made a clever comeback, how experience can be more important than position and having a clear purpose.

Episode #508: Damian Lilly, a veteran humanitarian and human-rights specialist, who has worked in conflict zones across the world, believes assistance must be joined with protection and accountability. “We can't just be there to assist people—we also need to be there to protect them.” He formed this conviction through his work with Médecins Sans Frontières, documenting sexual violence in places such as Afghanistan, South Sudan, and the Congo and turning testimony into pressure on governments. Working with the UN, he returned to South Sudan later as Senior Advisor on the Protection of Civilians. The civil war there drove more than 250,000 people into UN compounds, and although his work helped shelter so many people, he looks upon it as a failure because in the end, there was no justice or redress. Protection without justice, he says, “really loses sight of what we're trying to do.” Later on, he was posted in Gaza in his role as UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees: during that time, there were three Israeli military incursions into the territory between 2008 and 2014, with no real repercussions, which only reinforced to Lilly how impunity fuels repeated wars. Accountability, he says, fails not for lack of law but ofpolitical will. When his wife, also a UN employee, received a posting to Myanmar, Lilly and his family moved to Yangon. This was shortly before the coup. He reports watching the tanks roll down the streets. In response, Lilly co-founded the Myanmar Accountability Project (MAP) to pursue prosecutions abroad through what is called “universal jurisdiction,” where crimes against humanity in one country can be prosecuted in another country's national courts. MAP is seeking cases in countries like Indonesia, the Philippines, and Turkey. Lilly critiques the International Criminal Court and UN Security Council for their paralysis, timidity in engaging the junta, and reluctance to recognize the NUG as the people's legitimate representative. While the UN employs the claim of neutrality to justify continued relations with the junta, Lilly argues that true neutrality means fidelity to humanitarian principles, not moral equivalence. Despite bureaucratic inertia and shrinking aid budgets, Lilly insists that localization, persistence, and creative legal action can still advance justice. “It is a complex area,” he says, “but an important part of how we address many of these situations.”

What does it take to deliver high quality medical care in the middle of war, displacement and disaster? We gain a behind the scenes understanding from Chris Lockyear, Secretary General of Doctors Without Borders / Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF). This conversation offers a rare look inside one of the world's most recognised humanitarian medical organisations and the complex system that allows it to operate in some of the most dangerous and hard to reach places on earth. With around 70,000 staff working across more than 70 countries, the organisation provides emergency medical care to millions of people affected by armed conflict, disease outbreaks and natural disasters. In the past year alone, teams carried out more than 16 million outpatient consultations, alongside trauma surgery, treatment for malaria, tuberculosis and HIV, vaccination campaigns, and mental health support. Yet behind every clinic or hospital lies an intricate global operation that combines medicine, logistics, diplomacy and risk management. In this episode, MSF's Secretary General explains how humanitarian medicine works in practice. Teams must negotiate access with both state and non state actors, often in highly polarised conflict environments. Medical professionals work alongside logisticians, analysts and coordinators who ensure that drugs, equipment and staff can reach remote locations safely and reliably. The scale of the logistics alone is extraordinary. Medicines and vaccines must travel through complex supply chains while maintaining strict quality standards and often requiring temperature controlled storage. Equipment for surgery, sterilisation and treatment must arrive on time in places where infrastructure is limited or damaged. In many cases, care is delivered through mobile clinics operating from the back of a vehicle. Security is an ever present concern. Staff operate in environments where shelling, crossfire or kidnapping are real risks. Rather than promising safety, the organisation focuses on understanding risk, training staff and ensuring informed consent about the conditions in which they work. In 2025, eleven colleagues lost their lives while carrying out humanitarian work. The conversation also explores how knowledge gained in these extreme settings travels across the global health system. Experience with epidemic response, infection control and contact tracing developed in Ebola outbreaks later helped support hospitals and health ministries in Europe and the United States during the early stages of the Covid-19 pandemic. A defining feature of the organisation is its financial independence. Around 98 percent of funding comes from private donors, with more than 7.3 million donors contributing. This allows operations to be guided primarily by medical need rather than political priorities. Beyond funding, these contributions represent something deeper: a global expression of solidarity between people who will likely never meet but are connected through a shared commitment to helping others in crisis. For listeners interested in humanitarian medicine, global health, logistics, crisis response or international cooperation, this discussion offers an inside perspective on what it really takes to bring medical care to the front lines of human suffering.
