I am an Assistant Professor in Genetics and plant breeding at University Joseph KI-ZERBO (Burkina Faso, West Africa). My works are focus on valorization of local plant species, especially neglected and underutilized crops for food security in Burkina Faso. I represented our university at the workshop (4-5 February 2019) for the validation of the sustainable management strategy of fall armyworm in Burkina Faso. At the request of the association "La Tortue Voyageuse", I led a conference at Havre, France (17 November 2019), on the contribution of some food plants to food security in Burkina Faso.
