Brigitte Maass

As an agricultural scientist, I graduated from University of Hohenheim, Stuttgart, Germany; Dr. sc. agr. (PhD) and habilitation (Associate Professor/'Privatdozentin') in Crop Sciences in the Tropics and Subtropics at Georg-August-Universität Göttingen, Germany. Long-term experience in research for development in tropical agriculture was acquired especially in South America and eastern/central Africa, with employments by GIZ (based in Peru), CIAT (in Peru, Colombia, Kenya) and ILRI (in Ethiopia).
