MSF, an organization which sent trained doctors all over the world to help people who have suffered from disasters (遭受灾难)since 1971. At the moment, more than 27,000 trained doctors have taken part in MSF. The organization received the Nobel Peace Prize in 1999. All kinds of doctors can volunteer for MSF. They need to be ready to go almost anywhere in the world and, of course, they should face difficulties. Most of MSF's work is in Africa. When MSF chooses a doctor for a task, they have to go for at least six months. When doctors have completed a few tasks, they might be sent on an emergency (紧急的)task following a disaster, such as an earthquake.
