MCAN is a volunteering initiative, consisting of a multidisciplinary group of medical doctors and academics living in the Netherlands.

SHARING KNOWLEDGE
BUILDING A NETWORK
COLLABORATING TO BECOME STRONGER

OUR BEGINNING

MCAN is an independent working group which has officially been established in 2014. Though it must be mentioned that MCAN started its activities back in 2010, when a group of young doctors formed a committee dedicated to help Afghanistan in the rebuilding process.

OUR VALUES

MCAN is committed to advancing and strengthening the level of health care in Afghanistan. Currently, we aim at knowledge sharing. In the future MCAN wants to support and enable Afghan and other health professionals residing in the Netherlands to (temporarily) return to Afghanistan to offer short- or long term assistance and expertise to the health sector of Afghanistan.

OUR MISSION

MCAN seeks to contribute to the improvement of easily accessible and quality healthcare services in Afghanistan. To achieve this, we aim to engage Afghan and Dutch health professionals, academics and health- and financial organizations that are interested in Afghanistan.
