An immersion at the heart of the humanitarian emergency

La Grande Expo – An immersion at the heart of the humanitarian emergency.

See, hear, understand: an immersive exhibition that tells the story of humanitarian work from the inside.


Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) invites you to discover “La Grande Expo,” an immersive exhibition transporting the Luxembourg public to the heart of global humanitarian crises. From March 17 to 29, 2026, at the forecourt of the Centre Culturel de Rencontre Abbaye de Neumünster, experience a unique event in Luxembourg City and explore the daily work of MSF teams in the field.

.


For the first time in Luxembourg, this traveling exhibition authentically recreates the medical and logistical systems deployed by MSF: access to medicines, migration, and treatment areas for malnutrition and epidemics. Thanks to this life-size setting, visitors experience first-hand the challenges of humanitarian action and are invited to reflect on essential questions: Where does drinking water come from in disaster-stricken areas? How do we treat children suffering from malnutrition? How do we work in refugee camps? And how do we combat diseases such as Ebola or cholera?


An experience for everyone — and an opportunity to learn


“La Grande Expo” is free and open to all: the general public, donors, students, and teachers. Visitors are guided by experienced field staff who share their stories, successes, and the challenges they face in emergency contexts. For students and teachers, the exhibition also offers educational and immersive workshops on humanitarian crisis management, providing a practical and engaging tool for education in solidarity.


What you will discover:


·      A sensory immersion into the daily reality of MSF interventions.

·      Direct exchanges with humanitarian emergency professionals.

·      Educational resources and interactive workshops for teachers and students.

·      A strengthened civic awareness of global health and solidarity challenges.


Come see, touch, and understand what it means to act in an emergency. Every act of solidarity takes on a concrete dimension here: care provided, lives saved, and human stories shared.


Don’t miss this human and participatory experience, which transports you to the heart of humanitarian action and reveals the real impact of solidarity in action.

  • Grand Duchess Charlotte National Relief Fund
