    Multimedia Producer

    Rationale/Objective for Position

Communications helps to further our organisation´s wider objectives, including by helping us to grow our human and financial base, by communicating to our patients about the services we provide or by sharing health promotion messages.
    MSF Eastern Africa is the regional institutional office for MSF. The office focusses on representation and networking, recruiting and supporting staff from the region, communications and fundraising, as well as on other dossiers of importance to MSF such as Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (DEI), mutualization, trainings, medical operational support and environmental health.
