Urban Survivors is a multimedia project by Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) in collaboration with the NOOR photo agency and Darjeeling Productions, highlighting the critical humanitarian and medical needs that exist in slums the world over.

Urban Survivors takes the visitor on a virtual journey through seven slums - in Guatemala City, Tegucigalpa, Dhaka, Johannesburg, Karachi, Nairobi and Port-au-Prince - where MSF is running projects. The website lets the visitor discover more about the daily lives of people in these slumbs, the challenges they face, and what MSF is doing to address their humanitarian needs.
