MAP was embroiled in controversy due to its founder's comments concerning a white supremacist video by David Duke made in 2017; however in 2018 the organisation has stated it abhors "all forms of prejudice".

[6] In July 2023, due to a reported increase in "attacks on healthcare workers and ambulances by Israeli forces and settlers", MAP diverted from its usual strategy of providing healthcare to supplying bulletproof vests and helmets for the protection of Palestinian health workers.

[7] Later that year, in response to the 2023 Israel–Hamas war, the organisation launched an emergency appeal to provide essential healthcare and medical aid in Gaza.

[11] It included donations from Tilda Swinton, Brian Cox, Ken Loach, Joanna Hogg, Mike Leigh, Ramy Youssef, Maxine Peake, Frankie Boyle, Aisling Bea, Aimee Lou Wood, Peter Capaldi, Karen Gillan and more.

Working in coalition with other NGOs, the scope of MAP's advocacy programme ranges from raising public awareness to advocating on salient issues with governments and policy makers.
