MedGlobal — A Leading Emergency Response Organization Committed to Saving Lives MedGlobal stands at the forefront of emergency response organizations, delivering timely, expert-driven medical care wherever disaster strikes. As a humanitarian non-governmental organization (NGO) founded in 2017, MedGlobal is built on the conviction that healthcare is a human right—even in the most chaotic and resource-poor settings. In its Disaster and Emergency Response wing, MedGlobal addresses a wide range of crises — from natural disasters like earthquakes, floods, droughts, and epidemics to man-made emergencies such as armed conflict, climate-driven migration, and industrial accidents. The organization also operates in complex emergencies, where conflict and disaster converge, displacing communities and overwhelming local systems. Rapid Crisis Response: Putting Care First When It Matters Most
As one of the top emergency response organizations in global health, MedGlobal deploys its Crisis Response teams at the earliest sign of disaster. These teams work with local governments, health facilities, and non-profit partners to deliver life-saving medical, nutritional, and WASH (water, sanitation, hygiene) services to the most vulnerable populations — often refugees, displaced families, or marginalized communities. A powerful example of their work: during the COVID-19 pandemic in northwest Syria, MedGlobal became the first NGO to provide oxygen support. They built two oxygen generators with local partners, supplying more than 5,000 patients every month. Building for the Future: Resiliency Medical Missions Understanding that crises don’t just demand immediate aid — they also require long-term healing — MedGlobal launches Resiliency Medical Missions (RMMs). These missions bring clinical experts and volunteers into affected regions, not only to treat but also to train. ● When war broke out in Ukraine, MedGlobal’s team of nine doctors and nurses arrived within two weeks to provide war-related medical training, equipment, and strategic health planning. ● In 2022 alone, six more RMMs trained 1,033 local health professionals across 16 regions in Ukraine — strengthening local capacity for surgical trauma care, ultrasound diagnostics, and trauma response. Rebuilding Health Systems: From Crisis to Continuity Once an immediate crisis stabilizes, MedGlobal shifts its focus to rebuilding. Disaster and emergencies leave behind not just broken infrastructure but also fragile health systems. MedGlobal’s model prioritizes long-term sustainability: ● In Bangladesh, they run a 24-hour Maternity & Birth Center (MBC) in a community of climate refugees. Here, women receive free maternal healthcare while local health workers are trained in maternal care.
● These efforts strengthen healthcare infrastructure and enable communities to become more resilient, even in the face of future emergencies. Crisis Preparedness: Teaching Resilience Before Disaster Strikes MedGlobal doesn’t just react — it empowers. Recognizing that disaster-prone communities remain at risk long after a crisis, they invest in crisis preparedness: ● They design response plans rooted in local realities. ● They train local health providers and community professionals to enact these plans. ● By doing so, MedGlobal helps communities build resilient systems that are ready for, and able to cope with, future shocks. Why MedGlobal Matters Among Emergency Response Organizations ● Global Reach + Local Impact: MedGlobal has active field teams in multiple regions — including MENA, Latin America, Europe, Southeast Asia, and Africa — partnering with local health systems. ● Volunteer-Powered and Professional: Their response is driven by a global network of volunteer doctors, nurses, and specialists (from over 27 countries) who bring deep expertise and compassion. ● Sustainable Approach: Unlike organizations that only respond and leave, MedGlobal combines emergency relief with long-term system strengthening. Their core values emphasize partnership, capacity building, and local ownership. ● Transparent and Accountable: Their annual reports document how donations are used — from building oxygen plants to training healthcare workers to supporting mobile clinics.
