Professional Experience: |
|
Conceived and established a school in the rural areas of DRC, Congo, managed it and monitored its growth. Moreover took responsibility for teachers' training as well as the worked on the formulation of a new school curriculum by applying new participatory methods. I set up also an educational centre for professional training for youth who have no opportunities otherwise, as well as started implementing a project of agricultural cooperatives in the rural areas which lacked agricultural training and where the local population focused only on activities such as charcoal production. These projects have an impact on over 3000 people in the area and have attracted the interest of many villages and districts . Despite being faced with political instability, lack of resources and everyday challenges, the focus on building capacity of the local population on site makes these projects possible and sustainable.
