Beyond the academic
community, much of my professional activity has been associated with
work in Sub-Saharan Africa, building on my initial experience as a Peace
Corps volunteer teacher in Ethiopia. I have travelled in some thirty
countries in Sub-Saharan Africa, and have lived extensively in both
Ethiopia (3 1/2 year) and in Senegal (1 1/5 years), I have been a
Fulbright Senior Fellow in the Faculty of Business and Economics of
Addis Ababa in the spring 2009, as well as a Fulbright Visiting Senior
Lecturer at the University of Dakar in the spring of 1984. In addition
to acquiring competency in various languages, I also have provided
professional consulting services to a variety of organizations. They
include: The World Bank, UNESCO, FAO, U.S. Agency for International
Development, and the U.S. State Department. Services provided are
summarized in the enclosed professional
vitae, with primary specializations in program evaluation
and human resource management training, in both English and French.
