I worked as community Development Officer and Teacher for the past seven years for Non- governmental organisation and for the public sector. I am graduated in “Integrated Development Studies” from the University for Development Studies and I obtained a Diploma in Education from the University of Education-Winneba (Kumasi-Campus) both in Ghana. I have a solid background in rural development issues thanks to my working experience at the “Organization of Rural Associations for Progress” a local Non-Governmental Organisation. I decided to join the MESCI programme in order to broaden my knowledge and skills in Economics and International Development issues.
