This breaks my heart. How can we trust aid when the very people sent to help are causing harm? I really hope MSF follows through on real change this time.
Doctors Without Borders report found cases of abuse and exploitation by staff in Chad
The international aid group Doctors Without Borders found a pattern of abuse and sexual exploitation by some local and foreign staff working in Chad along the Sudanese border, in some cases targeting underage girls or trading food or jobs for sex with refugees, according to a confidential internal memo obtained by The Associated Press. The Doctors Without Borders report — completed in July and first reported Saturday by The Associated Press — found 59 allegations of abuse and said 18 staff members were dismissed and barred from future employment.
