Established in 1984 by volunteer doctors and nurses, IMC is a private, voluntary, nonpolitical, nonsectarian organization. Its mission is to improve the quality of life through health interventions and related activities that build local capacity in areas worldwide where few organizations dare to serve. By offering training and health care to local populations and medical assistance to people at highest risk, and with the flexibility to respond rapidly to emergency situations, IMC rehabilitates devastated health care systems and helps bring them back to self-reliance.</div> <div> A Focus on Training for Long-Term Success</div> <div> IMC staff and volunteers come from all over the world and are united by a common goal: to save lives and alleviate the suffering of those affected by war, disease, and devastation. To help meet this goal, IMC places special emphasis on training local medical personnel in the skills and knowledge needed to rebuild their own health care systems. IMC provides extensive, hands-on training in the full range of health and managerial skills needed to restore self-reliance. Those who train with IMC, including thousands of female health care workers, go on to teach others in their communities, thus expanding IMC's legacy of care.</div> <bR> <bR> <div> <B><U>Where There is a Need, IMC is in the Field</U></B></div> <div> Since its founding in 1984, IMC has responded to man-made and natural catastrophes in more than 40 countries on four continents. IMC currently is providing lifesaving care in Afghanistan, Angola, Azerbaijan, Burundi, Chad, DRC, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Georgia, Indonesia, Ingushetia, Iraq, Kenya, Liberia, Pakistan, Sierra Leone, Somalia, Sudan, Tanzania, and Uganda. In previous years, IMC has also helped hundreds of thousands of suffering civilians in Albania, Armenia, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Cambodia, Croatia, East Timor, Honduras, Kosovo, Macedonia, Moldova, Mozambique, Nagorno-Karabakh, Namibia, Nicaragua, Rwanda, Serbia, Thailand, Ukraine, F.R.
