Since 2011, MSC Group and the MSC Foundation have supported Mercy Ships in its mission to deliver free surgical care and medical training across Africa. Now, that partnership is helping to build Africa Mercy II, a new hospital ship which is approaching its float-out when it will become waterborne for the first time. Due to enter service in 2029, it will meaningfully expand Mercy Ships’ capacity to provide care across the continent. Watch the video to find out more.
