We are proud to welcome Francelène to our team as our new part time Agronomist. She will be working with our kids and communities on their community gardens, tree planting and recycling programs.

Francelène is from Leogane and a recent graduate in Agroecology from the professional School in Desarmes in the Artibonite. After graduation she had an internship in Verettes where she worked with two local organizations on agriculture and especially market gardening, pest control, sanitation and crop storage.

Being skilled in agroecology she aims to build sustainable agriculture while putting an emphasis on people’s link with the environment including animals and geodiversity. Francelène believes that mastering agriculture is key in order to get food and generative income where people grow products and have produce left to sell.

Francelène is a very passionate and dedicated young professional when it comes to what she does, and she hopes that her country can find a better way to succeed related to agriculture. She thinks that we have to push ourselves to make more efforts in order to accomplish our goals to ensure food is accessible to everyone in the communities we are serving. This commitment can be seen in her way of working the ecosystem and building on the capacity of the communities.

She hopes that she can bring some innovative ideas to help us build with the kids in our programs and share with them the love of agriculture and the environment.

The whole staff at GOALS Haiti want to say welcome to Francelène. Recently she shared with us her dream of owning a farm where she will be known as a great agronomist. We are happy to support her in realizing her dream.
