Your welcome to Diafarou space!
Personally, I am a person with a high perseverance level, someone who is motivated and ambitious. Furthermore, my communication skills both in English and French are good and I like expressing ideas and concepts both in oral and written form, an ideal platform for the dissemination of knowledge in my chosen position. Moreover, with my skill of taking part in group works, social activities and working with participants and lecturers from various countries in my former institute (UNESCO-IHE), I would be able to adapt to a constantly changing work environment, and also establish and maintain good working relationship with individuals of different cultural backgrounds when carrying this work. I have always wanted to be multi-disciplinary in my career, especially in a diverse environment with professionals and colleagues from different background, cultural, religious and ethnic settings.
About Me
- Diafarou
- I was born in Mala–kirtachi in Niger republic. Having obtained my A-level certificate in mathematics and technics in 1995, I was admitted to Ahmadu Bello University (A.B.U), Zaria in Nigeria to study water resources and environmental engineering. After completing my first degree in 2003, I came back to Niger to serve the government as NYSC (National Youth service Corps) where I worked on a project of water supply and sanitation as an assistant controller. In 2004 , I got a scholarship to International Institute for water and Environmental Engineering (2iE), in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso where I obtained a Professional Masters(D.E.S.S.) in applied computer in water science .After my studies, I worked at the institute as an assistant researcher in the field of information systems where I was involved in the establishment of online database of water science softwares http://www.arid-afrique.org/ ).This work is in collaboration with an organization named Regional Association of Irrigation and Drainage (ARID). From now I have a Master of Science in municipal water and infrastructure specialist in sanitary engineering at UNESCO-IHE institute for water education Delft, Netherlands.
