The LEAP (Leadership Education Academic Partnership) programme is a flexible higher education programme developed for MSF and the wider humanitarian sector. It is open to all aspiring leaders within MSF, regardless of their position, profile or nationality. Students can graduate with a full MSc in Humanitarian Practice, a postgraduate diploma (PG Dip) or a postgraduate certificate (PG Cert). It is built on ‘blended’ learning and can be studied online and face-to-face to suit the working rhythms of MSF field work. The LEAP academic partners are the University of Manchester’s Humanitarian and Conflict Response Institute (HCRI) and the Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine (LSTM).
