Joint SSI-AO and SSI-Switzerland Retreat

In order to better coordinate and ensure the technical support of the West Africa Network for Child Protection, RAO, the technical partners that are the International Social Service, West Africa (ISS-WA) and Switzerland (ISS-CH), met for a joint retreat from 16 to 20 January in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso.

These 5 days allowed the two institutions to define the roles of the different departments involved in the coordination of the RAO and the distribution of the various tasks between the two institutions.

In Ouagadougou, the two teams not only had to think a lot, but also to meet nature through a hike in the forest and a visit to the crocodile site of Bazoule: the most courageous were able to shake hands (back) with the crocodiles!!!

It was a fruitful and laborious week of exchanges, planning and distribution of roles and tasks between the two institutions!
