Biography
My name is Annelies Aarts. I studied at the Catholic University of Leuven (Belgium) where I finished in 2007 the study Soil and Water management - option Agriculture in (sub)Tropical Regions. I wrote a masterthesis on environmental explanations for the recurrent bubonic plague in the north of Tanzania, Lushoto. One year later, after finishing an additional year in pedagogy ('aggregaat'), I moved to Tiznit (Morocco) where I worked as a junior-expert of the Belgian Technical Cooperation for the development project "Projet de Developpement Agricole Integrée, Ouijjane". It was my task to set up a monitoring and evaluation program for the project, to stimulate/facilitate learning and action in this domain and to offer technical advice to the local partner on the execution of the activities of the project.
