Research & Work
Evaline is passionate about changing the perception and the mindset of youth towards agriculture. Having interacted with young people as a teacher and patron of various agricultural clubs at secondary and tertiary levels of education, she realized that most have a negative attitude towards agriculture and hence turn away from agriculture-related fields and opportunities. Her professional interest is focused on not just equipping her students with the skills and knowledge necessary to transform agriculture into agribusiness, but also inculcating a positive mindset towards agriculture as a career opportunity for youth. Evaline’s research, which also explores the effectiveness of climate change adaptation strategies, will contribute to the identification, designing, and implementation of effective climate change adaptation strategies to improve income for farmers and help make agriculture an attractive and reliable source of income and livelihoods to the next generation.
