Who is this course for?
The CAM provides an analytic language to connect departments. Every department will play a role in ensuring it is relevant and adapted to their specific needs and meets the overall objective. For example, Finance shouldn't and will not decide what is relevant to OPS, MED & LOG. Therefore, every team member involved directly or indirectly, with spending MSF’s money is welcome to participate in this Tembo space (from whoever writes an Internal Request, up to the Head of Mission who is responsible for the whole mission budget).
