Have you ever thought of doing a challenging job abroad? Would you like to use your professional skills to improve somebody’s life? Are you willing to leave your family for several months to go and work in a developing country? Do you sympathize with the causes of MSF?

If you answered “yes” to at least one of these questions, read further!

With ongoing conflicts around the world as well as the occurrence of natural disasters, the need for mental health professionals with experience in dealing with trauma has increased in MSF projects.

The main task of mental health professionals during their mission with MSF is training local specialists in crisis intervention and psycho-social first aid. Together with the local staff, they attempt to help victims come to terms with traumatic experiences after war and displacement or deportation, by means of counseling, modeling, and art therapy, as well as through occupational therapy.

Examples of tasks that a psychologist would be involved in at the field level include

  • Assist national psychologists, psychosocial workers, and national counsellors in the MHC and provide them with training through clinical supervision, seminars, workshops, etc.
