About Learning and Development
Learning is at the heart of MSF's practices and for the past years, MSF has been working to decompartmentalize its training offers, the area in which MSF has historically invested the most, from the rest of the systems necessary for the professional development of teams.
The organization has formalized the institutional vision of Learning & Development (L&D philosophy) and the role of each person in implementing this vision, while working on broader issues such as the organization of work and the learning culture that MSF wishes to encourage in all its fields of intervention.
In a reaffirmed desire to position itself as a support to operations, the L&D unit has the mission of developing the learning offer and tools for the professional development of teams.
The mission of the L&D support teams is to provide coherent support to the missions and cells to ensure that they have motivated individuals capable of meeting operational needs.
The L&D MIO will assist the cell and its field teams to strengthen the working environment to ensure that it is conducive to equitable and sustained learning.
