Maintain regular communication with the WFP Programme team to ensure any programme changes are captured, so CFM Operators have access to the latest, most accurate information, processes, and procedures.

- Design and conduct training sessions for new staff and ongoing capacity-building sessions for operators to maintain and advance core skills (active listening, stress management) and to augment existing skills, knowledge, and capacity in specific areas, including protection and gender-related issues. Provide technical and language support to the CFM Operators as per their requirements.
