Ep. 10 | Italian Livestock Veterinary Working 20+ Years in East Africa: Get To Meet Massimo

Massimo started out as a veterinarian, and over the years his path led him to the African Union and later to senior roles at the UN Food and Agriculture Organization. His work has always been about livestock, food security, and public health, but behind the titles, it’s also about resilience, culture, and people’s everyday survival.

In this conversation, we talk about working in conflict zones, aspects of culture shock, what it takes to keep moving and adapting, and how you balance career, family, and roots when your life and family is on the move.
