Any more information you want to mention :
Joining as a Geohydrologist in Action of Food Production (AFPRO), I provided technical and facilitating services to a large number of NGOs and other public and private agencies for development of local water resources; both surface and ground water. Subsequent tenure in two bilateral technical cooperation projects funded respectively by German Technical Cooperation (GtZ) and Royal Netherlands Embassy (RNE) provided me with specific expertise in Hydrological data collection and preparing watershed level water balance and management plans. The recent experience of working with India Canada Environment Facility (ICEF) provided me with valuable expertise in designing and implementing community based environmentally sustainable projects from land and water sectors. Freelance consultant at present.
