Ce fut un plaisir de travailler avec Vincent en tant que chef de la Délégation de la Croix Rouge Suisse. Vincent
est une personne expérimentée avec un réel esprit d'équipe en tant que Mouvement et avec une grande connaissance de
la Fédération et du Mouvement. Son expertise des questions humanitaires et de développement et sa façon d'aborder
les différentes situations que nous vivons en Haïti ont permis de faire avancer les initiatives.
Je remercie Vincent de son soutien, en particulier dans des domaines tels que la sécurité, et je lui souhaite plein
succès dans sa nouvelle aventure.

Vincent was the Director of VSF Switzerland. I was in the Board of Directors. Vincent has managed the organisation well with a lot
of experience and expertise in a broad range of development questions. He was a good manager of personnel and has excellent writing
skills. Vincent communicates in a transparent manner with clear and short statements. I can recommend him for any cader position in

Cathy Watson, LEGS project Coordinator
From 2016, the WBG has consistently selected Vincent as our preferred consultant for the implementation support of the «Pastoral Crisis
Management» component of this regional project. This assignment included field supervision missions in all six Sahelian countries and at the
regional coordination level (CILSS-Permanent Interstate Committee for Drought Control in the Sahel). Not only did he display the required
technical competencies to build and assist resilient pastoral communities, but he demonstrated a high level of leadership skills in facilitating
consultative workshops in Mali and Niger with all national stakeholders involved. His technical competencies and leadership skills were recently
used to organize a week-long debate on project activities with representatives of all six countries and the regional. All deliverables were ready
in due time. His overall guidance was highly appreciated by the WBG and by our clients alike.

Vincent is a top professional with expertise in animal health, management and development. He served the International Committee of

he is such a hard worker. I will always remain impressed by his ability to think out of the box and recommend him highly.
Pierre Duplessis, CEO and Secretary General of Canadian Red Cross and Special Envoy of IFRC Secretary General for the avian and
Human Influenza
During my time as Under Secretary General with the IFRC from 2009 to 2015 I got to know Vincent very well as both a passionate and
consummate public health professional. He was instrumental in helping me and others in the leadership team gain a deeper
understanding of what a holistic approach to health means and how to translate it into concrete action. This included how to
integrate approaches to resilience strengthening into our health agenda as well as how to coherently link human health with animal
welfare. He is also a great advocate for an organisation, as he demonstrated when we worked together on IFRC's input to the multi
stakeholder Global Resilience Forum. Vincent is an effective team player and an asset for any development and/or humanitarian
organisation working in an action oriented manner on health and resilience issues.
