"Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) is an independent international medical humanitarian organisation that delivers emergency aid to people affected by armed conflict, epidemics, natural or man-made disasters, or exclusion from health care.　MSF currently works in more than 70 countries. "

"MSF may start a project when it identifies the existence of a humanitarian crisis, or when it has been asked by the national government or other organisations to consider establishing a project. In either case, an exploratory team of experienced MSF personnel visits the site and evaluates the medical, nutritional and sanitary needs, the political environment, the security situation, transportation facilities, and local capabilities.

MSF has developed and produced pre-packaged disaster kits ready for transport within hours, including a complete surgical theater the size of a small conference table and an obstetrics kit the size of a two-drawer file. These kits are used as models by emergency relief organisations worldwide. To maximise its responsiveness to emergency situations, MSF maintains four logistical centres based in Europe and East Africa and stocks of emergency materials stored in Central America and East Asia. The logistical centres purchase, test, and store equipment including vehicles, communications material, power supplies, water-processing facilities, and nutritional supplements. Logistical centres ensure that, within 24 hours, planes can be loaded with essential equipment and flown into crisis areas"
