Doctors without Borders (Médecins Sans Frontières)

In response to

What kinds of infrastructure and technology does this organization use?

Doctors without Borders has facilities in many countries already established for humanitarian aid. For instance, they had been in Haiti since 1991, so their assistance in 2010 was aided by their already established position there. In that case they upped their projects within the country in response to the disaster.
