Nepal Earthquake Emergency Response

Fieldset

Nepal has been hit by two major earthquakes in less than three weeks, killing thousands, injuring tens of thousands, and leaving millions more with the burden of rebuilding their lives.

Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) teams, who were already on the ground soon after the first tremor, continue working to reach and assist people affected. The priority remains those spread across remote mountain villages who have borne the brunt of the earthquakes and remain isolated from help.
