2023 – Construction site at Rohero-Bujumbura/Burundi

Being a girl born into a family of boys, I grew up very responsible and active. In such an environment I had no choice but to be brave and determined. That is why from an early age, I was motivated to study civil engineering.

When I entered technical school, I was discouraged by the boys at the institution, and some people did not understand my choice. But I refused to give up, because I believed in the strength within me, and I refused to be intimidated just because I am a woman.
