Contexte
Mayotte est le département français le plus exposé à la précarité : 77 % de la population vit sous le seuil de pauvreté. Sur le territoire, quatre habitations sur dix sont faites de tôle et le réseau d’assainissement y est largement insuffisant. Diverses crises se sont succédées avant le cyclone Chido : opération policière Wuambushu depuis 2023, visant à expulser les personnes en situation irrégulière et à détruire les bidonvilles, crise choléra au 1er semestre 2024...
Le 14 décembre 2024, le cyclone tropical Chido a durement frappé Mayotte, provoquant des dégâts matériels et humains considérables : nombreux axes de circulation coupés, aéroport et hôpital touchés, nombreux bâtiments privés d’électricité, manque criant d’accès à l’eau et à la nourriture. Des quartiers entiers d’habitats précaires ont été détruits, notamment Kaléni, le plus grand bidonville de France où étaient situés les bureaux de MdM qui sont devenus inutilisables. Le réseau d’assainissement, déjà insuffisant, est largement détruit, d’où le risque accru de crise sanitaire avec la propagation d’épidémies liées à l’eau (choléra, etc.).
La réponse humanitaire s'organise mais les difficultés de connexion téléphone et internet, ainsi que l’absence d’électricité, rendent la coordination des acteur.rice.s encore extrêmement difficile. L’ARS tente de mettre en place un hub pour faciliter la coordination des associations. Le déblaiement des routes, le retour d’une couverture électrique, internet et téléphone ainsi que le rétablissement de liaisons aériennes et maritimes entre La Réunion et Mayotte sont aujourd’hui les conditions pour pouvoir organiser les réponses. Plus de 70 centres d’hébergement d’urgence ont été mis en place localement pour plus de 100 000 personnes mais sans aucun service primaire distribué.
Un couvre-feu à Mayotte 22h a été instauré. Le risque sécuritaire est relativement élevé du fait des destructions, des besoins non couverts de l’ensemble de la population en vivres, en eau, en matériaux de reconstruction. Plus les jours passent, plus la colère monte au vu de l’absence de prise en charge des services de base, eau et nourriture notamment.
Les activités menées par MdM à Mayotte
Dans ce contexte, la priorité de Médecins du Monde est de joindre et de soutenir ses équipes, d’assurer leur survie, leur sécurité et leur accès aux services primaires. Et notamment pour les bénévoles pairs (plus de 25) qui portent nos actions mobiles à Mayotte et qui habitent souvent dans des bidonvilles.
MdM souhaite envoyer une équipe de renfort au plus vite, afin de soutenir et relayer l’équipe, de mettre en place les premières actions de réponse à la catastrophe et d’adapter nos activités.
Les activités précédentes à Mayotte
Présent à Mayotte depuis 2007, MdM a pour objectif de réduire les inégalités de santé et d’améliorer l’accès aux soins des personnes en situation de précarité, en particulier pour les personnes habitant en bidonvilles. L’association y a mis en place, entre 2009 et 2017, une activité de consultation médico-sociale destinée aux mineur.e.s en situation de précarité sur l’ensemble du département. En 2017, la mission s’est réorientée vers un programme de santé environnement, dans une approche communautaire. Démarré en 2023, le nouveau programme de médiation en santé inclut une approche auprès des professionnel.le.s de santé et des structures de prévention et de soins, afin de favoriser une meilleure compréhension mutuelle, de clarifier les filières de prises en charge et de fluidifier les parcours.
