I am currently working for the Swiss\nNGO \u2018Biovision Foundation\u2019 as a program manager on Policy and Advocacy. My work\nis focussed on sustainable food system, agroecology, and ecological development\nfor the Africa region. Our team supports public policies, and champion the\ninterests of smallholders in Africa at international conferences and in\ndiscussions with politicians and government officials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For instance, as part of my work, I help governments on assessing alternative policy options and providing recommendations on how to balance ecological, social and economic factors, through workshops, policy briefs, or direct bilateral meetings. What I found appealing in this job was to turn evidence and lessons from the field and research into action by creating a dialogue with policy-makers. Evidence-based approaches are core to our mode of operation. We collaborate with a diversity of actors: agricultural research institutions, national authorities and public bodies, UN organizations, development agencies, and a variety of NGOs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My past experience in environmental\nresearch for development is of great help. I started my career on forest issues\nin tropical regions as a consultant for the Center for International Forestry\nResearch (CIFOR), based in Cameroon and later in Indonesia. I was working on\nclimate change and forest management linkages in the Congo Basin. I was\ncombining fieldwork with local communities and assessment of national climate\nchange policies. I then pursued a PhD at ETH on the management of ecosystem\nservices in an Indian coffee landscape. The ability to understand local\nrealities and constraints combined with scientific approaches is increasingly\nsought in international development work. The experience gained during those\nyears helps me define credible messages in favour of more sustainable\napproaches.<\/p>\n\n\n
