Context<\/p>\n
M\u00e9decins du Monde (MdM) is an international humanitarian organization dedicated to delivering medical care to vulnerable populations worldwide including within France. Its mission is driven by voluntary engagement from healthcare professionals and experts across diverse fields. MdM mobilizes this collective expertise to implement impactful health projects, always prioritizing strong, collaborative relationships with the communities it serves. MdM has been active in Tanzania since 1992, beginning with HIV\/AIDS development projects and community health initiatives. In 2010, MdM shifted to harm reduction services for people who use drugs, launching the first comprehensive harm reduction program in Temeke, Dar es Salaam that significantly reduced HIV and other infectious diseases among people who inject drugs.
\nBy 2021, M\u00e9decins du Monde (MdM) served as a technical partner to expand harm reduction programs locally and in neighboring countries. In 2022, MdM began providing sexual and reproductive health services for adolescents and vulnerable groups in urban and rural areas, partnering with local organizations and health facilities.
\nMdM, along with partners like the University of Bristol, Burnet Institute, INPUD, and local groups in Dar Es Salaam, runs the CUTTS HEP C project to support Tanzania\u2019s hepatitis eradication efforts by:<\/p>\n

\nCreating accessible Hep C care models for people who inject drugs (PWID)
\nProviding evidence to shape national policy
\nSupporting PWID communities through involvement and community-led monitoring<\/p>\n
MdM Tanzania is also involved in harm reduction technical assistance in Rwanda. In Rwanda, MdM partners in a 3-years long harm reduction project called TUBITEHO (Oct 2023 \u2013 Sept 2026) with 4 other stakeholders.
