LAREDO-ORTIZ, Carlos et al. Our personal experience during an humanitarian project in Liberia. Cir. plást. iberolatinoam. [online]. 2018, vol.44, n.2, pp.231-232.  Epub Feb 08, 2021. ISSN 1989-2055.  https://dx.doi.org/10.4321/s0376-78922018000200018.

Non-Governmental Organizations (NGO) aim to provide basic goods and health care to people affected by human and natural disasters or by situations of extreme poverty. With this objective, collaboration took place between the Spanish Society os Plastic, Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery (SECPRE) and the order of the Brothers of San Juan de Dios. One of its achievements has been that this campaign has taken place for the second consecutive year at Saint Joseph´s Catholic Hospital in Monrovia (Liberia).

In this article, we describe our personal experience during the humanitarian project carried out in November 2017. We intend to communicate not only the working conditions, but also the personal experience of all the team members involved, with the aim of supporting future campaigns.

Keywords : Burns; Burns sequels; Humanitarian Plastic Surgery.
