Monthly Doctors Without Borders Podcasts
The MSF podcasts, titled "Frontline Reports ," will provide emergency updates from MSF projects around the world, shedding light on underreported or ignored humanitarian crises and neglected diseases. Listeners will hear interviews with MSF staff in the field and with the patients they are helping. Topics will range from the daily struggle for survival among refugees affected by war and natural disaster to the obstacles confronting people living with HIV/AIDS in the developing world.

"Podcasting provides us with a new tool to inform the public about critical humanitarian issues often ignored by the media," said MSF-USA Executive Director Nicolas de Torrenté. "By hearing a patient's voice or a doctor's explanation of the profound challenges that go along with working in a refugee camp, listeners will be connected much more directly with today's critical, and largely unacknowledged, humanitarian and medical crises."
