Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) Facilitator through which I embarked on trainings, sensitization, and vocational skills acquisition with secondary school  students. Through such an immersion, it became clear on the reactor and the concept of sustainable development goals as well as appreciating the role of engagement of the communities in attaining such goals. 

Sustainable Energy for All (SEforALL) and engagement  in the Africa Scholar and Alumni Forum (ASAF). This forum is European Union-funded
organization with the mission of supporting the United Nations Sustainability Goals and the Africa Union’s Agenda 2063 (“The Africa We Want”).

Youth Energy Forum (YEF) has allowed me to take part in international energy meetings conceived for sustainable solutions
and energy shift.
