Description de poste

The agency operates around four key priorities: democratic, economic, and financial governance; peace, stability, and security; climate, agriculture, and sustainable development; health and human development.

In these areas, Expertise France conducts capacity-building initiatives and manages project implementation, leveraging technical expertise and acting as a project coordinator. This involves combining public sector expertise with private sector skills to drive impactful results.

A specific focus is also given to the situation of teachers in conflict and emergency contexts, and how to better support them.
