Mehad mission

Mehad is a French and international health and solidarity NGO established in 2011 by a group of doctors to address the urgent healthcare needs of populations affected by the war in Syria and neighbouring countries. In 2022, Mehad expanded to Ukraine in response to the Ukraine war. Recently, Mehad has included Palestine and Yemen in its areas of intervention.

In early 2024, Mehad conducted an exploratory mission to southern Yemen, led by two international humanitarian experts, to assess the humanitarian situation, particularly the health system’s needs and potential contributions to strengthening it. Based on the findings of this mission, Mehad will move from assessment to implementation by supporting a health project in Abyan Governorate. This project aims to enhance the resilience and stability of the people in northern Abyan by improving their access to quality healthcare services.
