Sexual and reproductive health care
In Honduras, MSF provides sexual and reproductive health services to adolescents in health centers and educational institutions in San Pedro Sula.
Our teams in San Pedro Sula also work to ensure access to comprehensive health care for people who engage in sex work and the LGBTQI+ community, with services including psychosocial and basic psychiatric care, health promotion, screening and treatment for sexually transmitted infections, human papillomavirus vaccinations, screening for cervical cancer, family planning, pre‑exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) for HIV, and treatment for sexual violence.
Tackling dengue
In 2025, MSF completed a study on the results of our arbovirus project, which involved releasing mosquitoes carrying Wolbachia into the natural environment as part of a dengue prevention strategy. The project was implemented in collaboration with the World Mosquito Program, the Ministry of Health, and the National Autonomous University of Honduras. The results suggested that Wolbachia contributed to a significant reduction in dengue incidence in 2024, specifically in the area where the mosquitoes were released.
As a result of these findings, we started dengue prevention community groups and a community‑based epidemiological surveillance system. We also completed two chemoprevention activities for arboviruses — residual wall spraying and the installation of larvicide traps — in the La Joya, El Edén, and El Manchén neighborhoods, working in collaboration with the Honduran authorities and communities.
Care for people on the move
With declining numbers of people migrating through Honduras on their way to Mexico and the United States, MSF closed our project in Danlí, near the Nicaraguan border. For four years, our teams there offered medical, psychological, and social support, as well as health promotion activities, for people on the move.
