About this audiobook
A group of doctors in France was dissatisfied with the way people were getting medical help around the world. So in 1971, they formed an organization called Medecins Sans Frontieres (MSF), or Doctors Without Borders. This audiobook explains some of their efforts in helping during conflicts, natural disasters, and epidemics.
