STORY ABOUT US

Build a nation that is environmentally

Ange's Bio
From a young age, I committed to creating a good change in my community by integrating biodiversity conservation, community health, agriculture, entrepreneurship, climate protection, and sustainable development in Rwanda. Named Top Young Innovator of Rwanda, 2012, I cofounded and serve as Executive Director of Biodiversity Conservation Organization BIOCOOR ( www.biocoor.rw ). I am a cofounder of a community based ecotourism project called Nyungwe EcoVillage www.nyungwecovillage.rw . I have worked in The Nature Conservancy (www.tnc.org) as a short term Consultant. In this role, I negotiated nearly 300,000 USD in grants and investments from the South Korean government, UNDP, The Van Tienhoven Foundation, The New Forests Company, and others to support my community. I have served as a Tourist Guide in Nyungwe National Park at the Rwanda Development Board for four years ( www.rdb.rw ). I have earned BSc in Zoology and Conservation and I have MSc in Biodiversity Conservation. I am completing a PhD in Biodiversity Conservation, Ecosystem Services, and Community Development. I have created the social businesses to promote the sustainable development of Youth in Rwanda. In BIOCOOP we have the vision of putting Rwanda to the level of middle income countries by integrating biodiversity conservation, ecotourism, climate protection, community health, natural resources management, and sustainable development of Rwanda. I created 27 permanent jobs and 1800 part time jobs in my community and have built Dr IMANISHIMWE CONSERVATION LEADERSHIP CENTER around Nyungwe National Park and we are building the capacity in entrepreneurship, leadership, project management and biodiversity conservation for 18 students from African Leadership University and the University of Rwanda. We extended our Programs to the whole Southern Province and our Headquarter is in Huye. Our achievements in biodiversity conservation are remarkable
