The MSF charter
Doctors without borders bring their help to distress populations, victims of disasters of natural or human origin, of belligerent, without any discrimination of race, religion, philosophical or political.
Working in neutrality and impartiality, doctors without borders claim, in the name of universal medical ethics and the right to humanitarian assistance, the full and whole freedom of the exercise of their function.
They undertake to respect the ethical principles of their profession and to maintain total independence from all power, as well as any political, economic or religious force.
Volunteers, they measure the risks and perils of the missions they accomplish and will not claim for them or their beneficiaries no compensation other than that which the association will be able to provide them.
