I am Perpetual Mawusinu Katsriku, a Capacity Development Specialist with the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and a plant pathologist with expertise in sustainable agriculture, climate adaptation, agrifood systems transformation, and capacity development. My work spans research, policy support, learning design, and capacity strengthening initiatives aimed at building resilient and sustainable food systems across Africa. As a former UNESCO-TWAS Fellow at the University of Eldoret, Kenya, I conducted research on botanical alternatives for managing Fusarium wilt in potato while contributing to climate resilience, agroforestry, and agricultural sustainability initiatives. I am also a AWARD Climate Fellow, where I am strengthening my leadership and expertise in advancing climate-resilient and gender-responsive agricultural development. My interests include plant health, climate-smart agriculture, sustainable agrifood systems, capacity development, and knowledge co-creation. I welcome opportunities to collaborate on interdisciplinary research, grant proposals, scientific publications, and PhD studies related to plant pathology, climate adaptation, agroecology, sustainable food systems, and capacity development in Africa
