For now, founder Yared Fubusa’s responsibilities afford him little time to enjoy GOSESO’s idyllic campus, which offers lakeside views of lush miombo woodlands, mountains, and Gombe Stream National Park. The founder maintains a busy speaking schedule throughout the United States and abroad with current and potential donors and has been featured as a keynote speaker to various educational institutions and conferences in 45 U.S. states.
Yared’s speaking engagements cover a wide range of topics from rural economy, sustainable livelihoods, linkages of research knowledge and action, African indigenous institutions, community-based conservation to effects of African wildlife and foreign aid on the livelihoods of the African people. Yared is a fresh- and independent-thinker who is not afraid to tackle complex local and global forces affecting the livelihoods of the African people and natural resources. The British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) has identified him as a distinguished social scientist.
Contact GOSESO now to invite Yared to speak at your workplace or institution.
