1) The mission


-Despite frequent confusions, MDM differs from MSF’s international relief actions by conducting development programmes and by running health care centres (these represent around 10% of the total budget of operations). In third-world countries, the organisation doesn’t just provide emergency medical aid but takes care of street children, especially in Kinshasa (Congo) or N’djamena (Chad). Another original programme consists in working to better the living conditions of ordinary criminals, for instance in Kindia jail (Guinea Conakry).
