ClinicFinder App for displaced people finding healthcare in Europe. Doctors of the World have released an App for those with the most need, the least information, and who find themselves in Europe. It is aimed at refugees and migrants and helps them find free primary healthcare and emergency services.

There are already over 70 health clinics in 16 countries mapped on ClinicFinder, and the site encourages people to add the locations of other eligible clinics (free to access, non-government provided) so the number is expected to grow substantially.

Gareth Walker, International programme manager, Doctors of the World UK:

“A difficult journey is made dangerous when people have no idea where they can get help when they need it. ClinicFinder is designed with vulnerable refugees in mind, providing a resource for them to find the free medical help that the European public has made available. It is a map of humanitarian effort, and deserves to be shared as widely as possible”
