"Exil, Exit ? Life as an undocumented migrant in Europe": MdM exhibition – Olivier Jobard’s photos
The photo exhibition "Exil, Exit ?" bears witness on the living conditions, health status, access to healthcare facing undocumented migrants in Europe - people among the poorest, most excluded and most discriminated against. This exhibition aims to question the visitors on concepts such as exile, wandering, survival.
The different testimonies, collected during the survey of the European observatory on access to healthcare of Médecins du Monde1 (launched in 2009), highlight the obstacles which undocumented migrants face in trying to access the different European health systems and alarming situations in relation to the key determinants of health.
