OUR FELLOWS
Delphine Aissata Bama Nati is one of the few female agricultural engineers in West Africa. Her early interest and excellence in the sciences earned her scholarships from both the government of Burkina Faso and the Kingdom of Morocco to pursue her bachelor’s degree at the Hassan II Agronomic and Veterinary Institute in Rabat, and CRESA, a regional francophone center for specialized instruction in agriculture, supported her MSc with a scholarship to the same university.
My family comes from a small village, and I am trained as a rural development engineer. I am passionate about improving the livelihoods of people in rural and peri-urban areas,” she says. “However, I am also interested in the sustainability of agricultural production, particularly water use in our rather fragile environment.
Field of Research
