Genna Bangaroo spoke to Engineering Leaders from her home island of Mauritius, a small island that is being especially impacted by climate change. The issues that are being experienced require the intelligence and skills of engineers to assist in maintaining healthy living conditions. And COVID19 has particularly shown that Mauritius must not rely so heavily on the help from external, but be able to build the skills within their own population.
