Chaîne de l'Espoir Luxembourg is seeking volunteer healthcare professionals to participate in pediatric surgery missions abroad, in Jordan, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and Cape Verde.

Presentation of the opportunity for volunteering

Founded in 2016, Chaîne de l’Espoir Luxembourg (CDEL) is dedicated to providing high-quality specialized medical care to children from underprivileged countries. Each year, several medical and surgical missions abroad enable the organization to provide consultations and perform surgeries on a volunteer basis for dozens of children suffering from orthopedic, cardiac, ENT, or other conditions. The association’s work is complemented by welcoming to Luxembourg children who cannot undergo surgery in their home countries and whose medical care requires treatment lasting several weeks or even months. La Chaîne de l’Espoir Luxembourg also provides active support to partner hospitals by supplying medical equipment and participating in staff training during its missions and through telemedicine.

We regularly seek medical personnel specializing in pediatrics to join us on pediatric surgery missions abroad (Jordan, DRC, Cape Verde). Missions last up to 7 days.
