As a scientist, I have since these three years been in close contact with foreigner researchers that crossed through the research stations, working on diverse research topics and science domains. I have a good use of tools as GPS, Compas, Map, Camera traps, Malaise traps, Acoustic stuff for terrestrial mammals and birds, Delorne (Inreach), Mist nets, DNA extraction and Migration including a good navigation on the field.
I have experience in management of the projects (Planning of activities, budget management and justification) associating the social dimension as I am working now with 22 local communities around the Northern part of the Dja Reserve. The culture differences it not a problem with me.
I use to organize according to my Job activities, sensitization meeting within the communities and schools, about the protection of biodiversity and especially the Dja reserve.
