My involvement: for eight months, I assisted the WeForest projects in Ethiopia, based in Mekelle. Currently, as projects support officer in Zambia, my technical support facilitates implementation of the Katanino project and the Luanshya project. In the field, my camera never leaves my side. This led to a short assignment on Mount Mulanje, Malawi, to visually tell the story of the critically endangered Mulanje cedar. Explore more by sliding over the photographs.
