About Me

My Background
Professional Overview. With no direct farming background, I graduated with a Higher National Diploma in General Agriculture at Seale Hayne Agriculture College, University of Plymouth, United Kingdom and gained a Post Graduate Diploma in Irrigation Water Management at Cranfield University, United Kingdom. Afterwards, I undertook an MSc in Water Management (option Soil & Water Engineering). From June 2001 to May 2006, I conducted an MPhil research based on ‘The institutional & legal framework for protecting poor communities’ access to water supply and sanitation in the Senegal and Volta River basins. My contribution to knowledge was a) the design of a model framework for poor communities accessing water supply and sanitation facilities as their fundamental human right and b) a better understanding of the socio-political and economic climate and institutions in the region.
African Women, frequently marginalised due to socio-economic factors, require proactive backing for the promotion of inclusive farming and agribusinesses investments . Cultural norms and societal expectations curtail women’s assertiveness, while the responsibility of unpaid care work restricts their entrepreneurial and investments aspirations. Compounded by limited financial literacy rates among trained and qualified women, and exacerbated by information gaps in rural regions, their business prospects often dim and not taking seriously as STRATEGIC investment PARTNERS.
African women farmers have been forgotten and neglected from food production for years. For centuries, African women farmers have made us all proud for their abilities, dedication , strength and knowledge of farming and food systems to feed communities across the continent of Africa.
2023 is the year of sowing the seeds for African women farmers rightful opportunity to access land and engage in modern and revolutionised farming practices and agribusinesses for future generations and create generational wealth.
African women farmers have the abilities to grow food and other agricultural products.
Mechanisation, Water security and management and above all Energy security are URGENTLY needed.
It is time to UNLEASH and give back African women farmers the lost opportunities .

One of the advantages exporting avocados are that it brings foreign revenues. Angola and Gambia have the possibility of being globally competitive because they can hit particular seasonal windows and have the right agro-ecological conditions. From the production for domestic consumption, you can build profitable new industries, as in countries
like Mozambique and Malawi.

My experiences, knowledge, and talents have enabled me to contribute to improving the quality of life of urban and rural communities. This, therefore, demonstrates my resilience, passion, and commitment, when faced with challenging situations. My time as Head of the UN World Food Programme in Kuito, Angola, equipped me with strong leadership (conflict management, diplomacy management abilities as the requirements of the job changed) and management skills (motivation, training, setting objectives, proposal writing, implementing financial procedures, staff selection and retention and resources & time management). I have experience working in multi-lateral financial institutions or similar large organisations and performing duties such as preparation, appraisal, supervision, or implementation of donor-funded projects with strong conceptual and research/analytical skills, the ability to think strategically, quickly analyse and integrate diverse information from a variety of sources to draw conclusions and make recommendations.
