Le Parcous d’un Burkinabé dans le domaine de l’Aéronautique et de l’Espace
Published:
This webinar took place on April 26, 2025, organized by the Initiative Burkinabé pour l’Aéronautique et de l’Espace (IBAE). I shared my educational, professional journey and experiences as a Burkinabé in the field of Aeronautics and Space to my younger brothers who aspire to embark on that path. This was an opportunity to inspire and guide the next generation of Burkinabé aerospace enthusiasts. See the slides of my presentation here.
