Regional Intersection L&D Officer H/F At Doctors Without Borders


The creation of regional platforms has made it possible to improve a number of key activities, in particular research and development through staff mobility and the provision of training, for example. However, the potential created is still untapped for many reasons, including the time required to find the optimal positioning of platforms in a system that used to operate differently.

As for L&D activities, they coincided with a much broader reflection which made it possible to establish a philosophy and which will soon define a strategy and a new structure. At the same time, the training unit has also reviewed its role and mission, with some clear indications of the changes to be expected in the years to come.

In this context, the platform adapted its activities to the most urgent and important needs, even if it clearly anticipated and integrated the different visions defined at each level.
