As a Fellow at the School of Transnational Governance at the European University Institute (EUI) and the Managing Director at Etsahale, I have over 10 years of experience in sustainable development finance, climate change, and environmental, social, and governance (ESG) matters. I am passionate about promoting and refining the African Union Agenda 2063 and highlighting the synergies with the AU-EU Partnerships, as well as ensuring sustainability is fully embedded into every function and process of Etsahale, a development consultancy focused on demystifying Climate Change in Africa.In my dual roles, I leverage my analytical, economic, and communication skills to interpret changes in the external sustainability environment, evaluate and approve proposals for sustainability projects, advise on biodiversity conservation and natural resource management, and communicate and cut through the organizational complexity to deliver on the ESG commitments. I have also worked with various global independent power producers, local communities, government institutions, and international financiers, and have oversight on the IFC performance standards and the UN Sustainable Development Goals. Furthermore, I have a background in the energy sector in Africa and have had interface in the mining, steel, and metals industry. I am a champion for applying the theory of change in development and for empowering rural socio-economic capacitation.
