Rwanda

Message

At RAINBOW HEALTH FOOD LTD, I promoted organic fertilizers for High Iron Beans in partnership with Dyna Pharm and Rumbuka. I trained cooperatives and farmers in the HIB value chain and supported vegetable production at two training sites.

At Kinneret College and with Bananot Hachof, I gained hands-on experience in fruit harvesting, post-harvest processing, plantation management, and irrigation across banana, avocado, and watermelon farms. I also worked in a banana packing house.

During internships with AEE Rwanda, the SAIP/Nyabihu project, and the University of Rwanda, I entered household records, supported nursery and field activities, and collected and analyzed forest and soil data. I hold a BSc with Honours in Agroforestry from the University of Rwanda and completed the Cross-Border Agriculture Training Program at Kinneret College.
