In the wake of the recent U.S. election, we at MedGlobal find ourselves reflecting on the challenges that lie ahead for healthcare, human rights, and humanitarian efforts both domestically and around the globe. We acknowledge the concerns and anxieties experienced by the communities we serve as they navigate the uncertain implications of potential new policies on their lives and futures.

Ongoing crises of war, repression and climate change continue to disproportionately impact civilians, refugees and other marginalized people. The voices articulating the needs of these communities must be amplified, and we are committed to ensuring that their struggles are not forgotten amid the shifting political landscape.

While uncertainties may arise in policies affecting international aid and global health initiatives, our commitment remains steadfast. MedGlobal will continue to:

1.⁠ ⁠Improve Access to Healthcare: We will work tirelessly to provide essential and emergency medical services, preventive care, and health education in some of the world’s most challenging environments.

2.⁠ ⁠Strengthen Resilience: Our programs are designed to empower communities to build their own capacity to respond to health challenges. By investing in local healthcare infrastructures and training local health workers, we aim to create sustainable solutions that endure beyond immediate crises.

3.⁠ ⁠Stand in Solidarity: We renew our pledge to amplify the voices of those caught in the midst of violence, targeted by repressive policies or experiencing the devastating effects of climate change. We stand with every civilian, refugee, and disaster victim, advocating for their health, rights and dignity.

As we navigate this new chapter, we invite all stakeholders—governments, NGOs, and individuals—to join us in prioritizing humanitarian needs and fostering a global commitment to health equity. Together, we can confront these challenges, uphold our shared values, and create a healthier, more resilient world for everyone.

Thank you for your continued support and solidarity.
