3 Questions to Javid Abdelmoneim - Javid Abdelmoneim

What does being a medical doctor mean to you?
For me to be a doctor is something really special.
It's about an immense trust that you instantly have
with every patient, every stranger that you meet.
It's really privileged because you get to explore
their concerns and their fears and their anxieties and give them hope and answers. And in the end build
a relationship that's really powerful in a really
short space of time and I find that very special.

2. What is your dream? Oh, my dream is - not to be corny ,to be in this job that I have right now. So I've been in MSF since 2009 and it has been my point
in the future to arrive into the role
of the International President, which makes me wake up
every day excited to go to work and to be able to
represent MSF around the world.

Darfur, Sudan - 2026
South Sudan - 2014
Sierra Leone - 2014 
Do you have a message for the young people watching?

I think the main message is about the dignity that
all human beings are born with. We share that and that shared humanity
is what MSF is all about. It’s in the name of that shared
humanity and dignity that we get up and we go across the world to give care to populations and communities and people who need it and when you can see
that happening and living it around the world it's a very special thing.
