Clémentine

In this episode we meet Sandra Smiley, a Canadian communications officer who spent 2015 with MSF in Kinshasa, the capital of Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC).

Sandra travelled across the country, relaying to the world news of under-reported health crises and meeting patients like Clémentine. In our chat, we discover Sandra has made an inspiring career move. You can read more from Sandra about her time in DRC on her blog: blogs.msf.org/en/staff/authors/sandra-smiley

"Everyday Emergency" is a podcast from Doctors Without Borders / Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF)

In each episode, we bring you true stories from the frontline of humanitarian emergencies across the world.

From the conflict in Syria to the refugee crisis in Europe, we’ll be talking to people with some incredible stories that may just change your outlook on life, or at least, for a moment, put things into perspective.

In each podcast you’ll hear a true story written by an MSFer on the ground, read by an actor. We’ll then get them into the studio at MSF HQ for a chat about their time with MSF.
