Context

Médecins du Monde (MdM) is an international humanitarian organization dedicated to delivering medical care to vulnerable populations worldwide including within France. Its mission is driven by voluntary engagement from healthcare professionals and experts across diverse fields. MdM mobilizes this collective expertise to implement impactful health projects, always prioritizing strong, collaborative relationships with the communities it serves. MdM has been active in Tanzania since 1992, beginning with HIV/AIDS development projects and community health initiatives. In 2010, MdM shifted to harm reduction services for people who use drugs, launching the first comprehensive harm reduction program in Temeke, Dar es Salaam that significantly reduced HIV and other infectious diseases among people who inject drugs.

By 2021, Médecins du Monde (MdM) served as a technical partner to expand harm reduction programs locally and in neighboring countries. In 2022, MdM began providing sexual and reproductive health services for adolescents and vulnerable groups in urban and rural areas, partnering with local organizations and health facilities.

MdM, along with partners like the University of Bristol, Burnet Institute, INPUD, and local groups in Dar Es Salaam, runs the CUTTS HEP C project to support Tanzania’s hepatitis eradication efforts by:

Introducing cost-effective HCV prevention tools (long-acting buprenorphine and low dead-space syringes)
Creating accessible Hep C care models for people who inject drugs (PWID)
Providing evidence to shape national policy
Supporting PWID communities through involvement and community-led monitoring

MdM Tanzania is also involved in harm reduction technical assistance in Rwanda. In Rwanda, MdM partners in a 3-years long harm reduction project called TUBITEHO (Oct 2023 – Sept 2026) with 4 other stakeholders.

The future strategy aims to enhance harm reduction initiatives to newly identified regions with partners, strengthen technical assistance capacity within the country and to neighboring countries, expanding sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) interventions, and improving emergency response capabilities to respond effectively to crisis situations.
