Hope Clinic

Our clinic offers free medical treatments every day, all year round. The clinic is located in the Meheba refugee settlement, and is an important resource for both refugees and local residents living in areas connected to the camp.

Project leader

Madrine Phiri

The health challenges in a refugee camp are significant, and many live under difficult conditions with limited access to clean water, food, medicine, and healthcare. Even minor infections or injuries can quickly become serious, and diseases that are normally easy to treat can become life-threatening. Pregnant women and young children are particularly vulnerable, and many suffer from malnutrition or untreated illness.

Even the simplest medical procedures can have a huge impact. Cleaning a wound, treating an infection in time, providing access to hygiene, or monitoring pregnancies and childhood illnesses can literally save lives. Every treatment, every helping hand, and every check-up helps protect individuals, strengthen families, and create security in the local community.

Small, targeted initiatives have a big impact when carried out with care and love — clearly showing how concrete actions can make a difference in the daily lives of those who need it most.
