“The unique strength of the MSF learning modules is that they get away from a purely theoretical learning experience on multi-faceted concepts such as speaking out and humanitarian dilemmas by strongly anchoring the learning to concrete case studies and situations directly experienced on the ground. I see great potential to enhance context analysis, confidence in decision-making in complex environments, as well as advocacy related dilemmas by truly having the chance to reflect upon and learn from specific humanitarian situations being presented and examined in detail in the learning module.”
