holds a Bachelor’s degree of science in Statistics Applied to Economy from INES-Ruhengeri in Rwanda. After graduation, he couldn’t find a job so he decided to join his fellow Burundian refugees residing in Mahama camp to start simple indigenous farming activities. He later had an opportunity to partcipate in training conducted by Rwanda Organic Agriculture Movement (ROAM) where he attained skills and knowledge related to sustainable organic farming and environmental conservation methods that can be used in rural areas. After training, Prosper and Angelo started up a youth cooperative in the camp to grow tomatoes. With the smart projector, he plans to use Access Agriculture farmer-to-farmer videos to teach his fellow youth refugees and other farmers on best organic and agroecological practices which in turn may improve their cooperative tomato business productivity.
