Rahel Assefa works as a project manager and as the regional program manager for CIMMYT’s Sustainable Intensification Program in Africa.
“Working at CIMMYT is interesting because I get to collaborate with such a diverse group of people, and we can see that our work has a direct impact on the day-to-day lives of farmers,” she says.
“It’s always rewarding to see first-hand how the life of a farmer, woman or young person is transformed because of the work we do.”
