We are sad to announce that we have learned of the sudden death of Marina Benedik last week.
Marina joined MdM as coordinator for the Emergency Unit. She then joined the headquarters as Head of the Africa Division and subsequently held the position of Director of International Operations until 2020.
Her funeral will take place this Wednesday in Croatia.
We have created a dedicated page on La Boussole where you can leave a message.
We will then forward them to her family.
Our thoughts are with her family, her loved ones, and the MdM teams who shared moments of life and work with her, in the field or at headquarters.
Joël Weiler, Executive Director
Jean-François Corty, Président
