We had the second phase of Technical Assistance (TA) from Expertise France, implemented in partnership with TeAM4Health, which concluded in Yaoundé this November.
This crucial 4days workshop brought together 9 Cameroonian Civil Society Organizations (CSOs), including HEDECS, to define a strong, collective capacity-building plan.
Building Internal Expertise and a Consulting Network
Beyond just strengthening our organizations, a core aim of this TA is to empower our representatives. A key objective is the development of a Network of Experts by strengthening the capacities of our focal persons to become consultants in the four strategic domains:
- Governance
- Administrative and Financial Management
- Resource Mobilization
- Communication


The workshop involved intensive group sessions focused on analyzing expectations, reviewing completed actions from the recommendations of the previous phase, defining next steps, and mapping out the specific needs of the organization for the second phase of this TA. All these was done with guidance and coaching from the Team4Health consultants. W
e also focused on shared learning and mutual support, we are creating a pool of in-house experts to ensure long-term sustainability and strengthen collaboration amongst the 9 CSOs.
