Medical Aid for Palestinians (MAP)


Organization Highlight:

Medical Aid for Palestinians (MAP)

“MAP’s vision is a future where all Palestinians can access an effective, sustainable and locally-led system of healthcare, and the full realisation of their rights to health and dignity.

Through our programmes in the West Bank, Gaza, East Jerusalem, and Lebanon, we work with trusted and experienced local partners to achieve this vision. Our programmes, designed and delivered by Palestinians, provide access to essential health services and build local knowledge and skills to address Palestinian health problems. In times of humanitarian emergency, we are ready to respond rapidly with aid and assistance.

MAP is also committed to bearing witness to the injustices caused by occupation, displacement and conflict. We speak out in the UK and internationally, and ensure Palestinian voices are heard at the highest levels, to press for the political and social barriers to Palestinian health and dignity to be addressed.”

• I want to highlight Medical Aid for Palestinians (MAP) due to their significant medical work over in the Middle East. They have been working tirelessly for the past few months and they are heroes to so many people and patients. No, we as medical professionals cannot save every single patient and we recognize that within our community. However, with their efforts in saving lives and providing medical care to those in need is respected. I have been following them for the past few months now and I applaud their hardworking with not only medical care but also keeping us all updated with their medical efforts including their savings and losses. They also help keep us updated on international medical issues.
