Both medical doctors and humanitarian operators engaged in health relief or development missions abroad, are called to respect the general principles of international law, that is to say, customary law that is legally compulsory for the International Community and rules deriving from Treaties and International Conventions.

They have to respect all rules applying to their humanitarian action and they have to take responsibility towards beneficiaries and donors alike.
