Dr. Kouchner was France's Minister of Health until picked by Secretary-General 
Kofi Annan as his Special Representative for Kosovo.  In the humanitarian 
field, Dr. Kouchner founded Medecins sans Frontieres, a Paris-based non-profit 
humanitarian organization made up of voluntary medical personnel who contribute 
their time and expertise in assisting in situations of emergency or inadequate 
medical care in the developing world. In that capacity he travelled extensively 
in all the troubled areas of the world. He organized humanitarian operations to 
Somalia, El Salvador, Lebanon and Viet Nam. In addition to those countries, his 
humanitarian assignments took him to Cambodia, Thailand, Uruguay, Peru, 
Guatemala and Honduras.  Dr. Kouchner has played an important role on the 
French political scene for the past 20 years, holding a number of ministerial 
positions in different French Governments. Most recently he served as France's 
Minister of Health, and before that as Minister of State for Humanitarian 
Action, and Minister of State for Social Integration.
