Description
Firstly, Im Gerald Navuru im a forester, environmentalist/naturalist. I enjoy working outdoors most of the time and also working with communities and teams of different walks of life, customs and professions, but if im in an office or lab, im doing data entry or analysis or reporting which i equally enjoy. I am a person that loves taking on roles and challenges that take me out of my comfort zone. If it is one thing that i know is challenging my ideology of sustainable developement not only in natural resource development, but societal and human development in terms of educating people to use wisely what limited resources we have and how to multiply and create employment and sustinance through projects from agro-forestry, sustainable agriculture and forestry, biotechnology (biofuel, bioenergy etc…) small businesses and also land restoration and reclamation of degraded lands from industrial activities be mining and petroleum, agriculture, forestry to reclaim and resuscitate our most important resource the soil/land. Im an advocate for research and if it makes me discover something along the way i am all in 100% and i never give up on what i set my mind to, unless a natural event disrupts my progress i love helping, learning and engaging in meaningful work that brings about positive change.
