18/11 Motions

During this third pre-webinar, you were given a short feed-back on motions voted at the OCB Gathering 2019 and the 3 motions selected for the OCB Gathering 2020 were presented and debated! Here you can read the motions:

Motion 1: Female genital mutilation

We call on MSF to design and implement health promotion and advocacy strategies to reduce female genital mutilation with particular emphasis on its medical consequences. This should be done in appropriate contexts and in partnership with local and other key actors.

Motion 2: Migration Left Behind

When looking at the consequences of forced displacement and migration, MSF must not overlook the needs of those left behind, in particular elderly and children, providing them with comprehensive care adapted to the needs (for instance primary medical care, mental health, nutrition, sexual and reproductive health for teenagers) and health promotion. This to reduce their high level of vulnerability and warranty their physical and mental health.

Motion 3: Protection of Survivors of Violence

It is proposed that MSF redefines the comprehensive care of survivors of “other situations of violence” and, in particular, systematically includes protection mechanisms within the integral assistance currently offered (physical/psychological/social).
