Isabelle Erhudice Tachégnon Tokannou

Formatrice

I hold a Master's degree in Climate Change, Biodiversity, and Sustainable Agriculture (obtained in 2020 from Félix Houphouët-Boigny University) and a Master in Natural Resource Management from the University of Abomey-Calavi (UAC) in 2017. I also hold a Bachelor's degree in Environmental Planning and Management (obtained from UAC in 2015). In 2016, I worked at the National Forestry Office (ONAB/Benin) as a trainer for strengthening the capacity of local populations living around the classified forests of Benin on participatory forest management practices. Since January 2019, I have been working as a volunteer trainer for the NGO Green Student (Ivory Coast) on raising awareness among school youth about climate variability issues and practical measures to take to save the planet. I also worked as a consultant in 2021 for the Rural Livelihoods Framework Program (ProCaR) under the IFAD, conducting a study on the impact of the coronavirus on the livelihoods of women rice producers in central Benin. I am currently working with the NGO Bien Être et Développement Durable (Well-being and Sustainable Development) as a trainer in the Women's Empowerment Project in Rural Areas (AFeMir).
