  Sudan: Spiralling needs after three years of crisis

  May 6, 202618 minS5

  April marked a sobering milestone: the three-year anniversary of the ongoing war in Sudan. The scale of the crisis has become enormous, with 33 million people now in need of humanitarian aid – more than the entire population of Australia.    From the very first moments of the crisis, MSF teams have been responding, from running clinics in displacement camps to providing emergency surgery for people caught in the crossfire.    Today, we’re joined by Dr Oliver Yerby, an emergency medicine specialist who has recently returned from an MSF assignment in Darfur, a region which has seen some of the worst consequences of the war.   --- Presented by Amber Dowell Edited by Sandy McKee Associate producer: Kate Lee Series producer: Mark Lankester Photo: Cindy Gonzalez/MSF - Mustafa Omer Idriss, Sudanese doctor and MSF Medical Activities Manager, examines a child in Tawila Hospital.   Hosted on Acast.

  Afghanistan: How do you respond to a 'mass casualty incident'?

  Mar 31, 202625 minS5

  For the past weeks, the world’s media has been focused on the crisis in the Middle East.  The sharp escalation in violence has brought fear to the lives of millions of people. Airstrikes have hit densely populated areas with particular ferocity in Iran and in Lebanon, where hundreds of thousands of people have been forced to flee their homes. Médecins Sans Frontières / Doctors Without Borders (MSF) teams across the region have been adapting their programmes to respond to the crisis. However, behind the headlines, on the other side of the Greater Middle East Region, a long-term humanitarian crisis continues to play out in Afghanistan. For this month’s podcast, we spoke to Dr Mohammad Qaher Poya, the deputy nursing director at MSF's specialist trauma centre in Kunduz, a city in northern Afghanistan.  The trauma centre was originally set up to meet the needs of people injured during the war in Afghanistan. Now, in this post-conflict environment, the team uses their long experience of dealing with what's known as 'mass casualty incidents' to save lives when the sheer number of patients threatens to overwhelm the hospital. Dr Poya took a break between busy shifts to call us from Afghanistan. If you would like to support our life-saving medical work around the world, please visit msf.org.uk to make a donation.

  What next for medical aid in Gaza?

  Feb 19, 202633 minS5

  Last year in Gaza, MSF assisted in one in three births, supported one in five hospital beds, and provided 800,000 medical consultations. This year, however, our teams have faced the prospect that our operations in the Strip could be forced to close. In this episode, we talk to nursing activity manager Steve Davidson and field communications officer Nour Alsaqqa: two people with firsthand knowledge of MSF’s work in Gaza, the life-saving impact it’s having, and what would be lost if it couldn’t continue.  Presented by Amber Dowell Edited by Sandy McKee Associate producer: Kate Lee Series producer: Mark Lankester Photo: Motassem Abu Aser Hosted on Acast.
