Les Journées Pédiatriques Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) sont une rencontre annuelle dont l'objectif principal est d'améliorer la qualité des soins pédiatriques dans les contextes humanitaires. La dernière conférence a eu lieu les 15 et 16 décembre 2017 à Dakar. Elle a rassemblé 210 participants venus de 53 pays différents. Du personnel de terrain ainsi que du siège, des chercheurs et des collègues travaillant au sein d'autres organisations humanitaires étaient présents. L'asphyxie périnatale, les états neurologiques pédiatriques, la gestion de la douleur et les soins palliatifs sont des thèmes qui ont été abordés. De plus, quatre séances de présentations orales ont été organisées ainsi qu'une exposition de posters scientifiques. L'expertise des conférenciers et des participants a été mise en valeur grâce au format adaptée de la rencontre. Ce format a permis une analyse critique des facteurs endogènes à MSF qui représentent des défis et des contraintes à surmonter afin de délivrer les meilleurs soins pédiatriques possibles. Les innovations technologiques, le partage des taches, la collaboration intersectorielle, la collaboration avec les communautés et la nécessité d'un plaidoyer à la fois externe et interne, sont autant de thématiques qui ont été soulevées pour améliorer l'accès des soins pédiatriques de qualité.
