Episode Description

When a crisis hits, our emergency specialists - known as the E-Team - launch into life-saving action to coordinate the response.

In this episode of Everyday Emergency, we speak to Dr Natalie Roberts. Now Executive Director of Médecins Sans Frontières / Doctors Without Borders (MSF) UK, she is an experienced emergency doctor and former Head of Emergencies with our Paris-based 'Emergency Desk'.

We speak to her about the work of the E-Team, how they react to emerging conflicts and disasters, and reflect on the humanitarian events she worked through, including typhoons and civil wars.
