We want Tembo Communities of Practice to be a space where everyone feels comfortable to contribute. We see the following set of participation rules as a basic set of rules to be enriched over time with the opinions of our members

• I am open to learn from others and let others learn from me
• I leave space for others to share their knowledge, opinions or mistakes: no judgments!
• I respect differences of views and opinions
• I respect others and I use language which cannot be perceived as offensive or aggressive
• I am aware of the community’s diversity: different cultures, genders, languages, digital skills and experiences in MSF
• I speak for myself and from my own experience, without naming other people not present
• I protect the privacy and dignity of our patients. I do not mention individual cases and only share general scenarios if needed
• The community of practice does not replace the established validation channels. If I am interested in applying an idea found in the community, I check with the relevant person in my context before implementing.
• I make sure that the content I share is from trusted source
• I take confidentiality seriously when sharing conversations Community of Practice (CoP) conversations outside the CoP: I share only the learnings and I don’t name or devalue members for their contributions
• I will not share spam or any other form of advertising
• I respect MSF code of conduct, both in my daily MSF work and in the forum
