ATIA comes from the NGO Inter Aide whose charter it respects. The programs (social, health, education, employment and income) implemented rely on local partner associations, which co-carry out the activities, and which are supported and reinforced by ATIA to become autonomous.Thus ATIA intervenes in Burkina Faso to support TOND LAAFI which is an association under Burkinabè law created in 2019 and operating as a mutual health insurance fund for the benefit of vulnerable families in Ouagadougou. It has implemented a Health and Social Protection System (DSPS) in order to support the beneficiaries of YIKRI Microfinance.Main responsibilities : In short, my role is to coordinate all the financial activities of the mission and to guarantee compliance with ATIA procedures, donor procedures and the legal requirements in force in the country.Main achievements :Regarding the Accounting, I optimized the use of TOND LAAFI's ''Sage'' accounting management tool, thus allowing catch-up within the deadlines for the 2020 financial year. Thus I implemented analytical accounting and coordinated the update of the Accounting for the 2020 financial year (account analysis, reclassifications, updating of journals, accounting scheme, lettering, adjustments, accounting closings…). With regard to Reporting, I supervise the periodic sending of requests for cash funds to head office but also the monthly sending of accounting closures for which I had to develop a module for extracting accounting data that meets ATIA's requirements in terms of reporting.At the level of Administration and Human Resources, I made updates to the procedures that better meet the requirements of the internal control mechanism. I was also entrusted with the work of updating the salary grid of TOND LAAFI which I provided within the deadlines.

I also had to monitor the budget for the grant and develop accounting and administrative procedures.Main achievements :I implemented the accounting management system (Sage 100) and set up the necessary tools for good administrative management.

In addition, I had to participate in activities organized by RESAEN such as the selection of entrepreneurship’s ambassadors or the validation of the design of a data platform dedicated to the network's incubators.But still in parallel I also had to ensure on a voluntary basis the accounting and financial management of a grant from UNFPA granted to 2MINVEST (being my host structure within the RESAEN) for the sensitization of various actors for the peaceful holding of the 2021 elections and social cohesion in Niger.
