Makhtar Seck is a man whose life is guided by an unwavering passion for serving his country and community. Born in Rufisque, in the Dakar region, Senegal’s capital, he has always been aware of the challenges his community faces and felt the call of duty from a young age. Makhtar grew up with a thirst for knowledge and was always a dedicated student. He earned his Bachelor’s degree in Economics and Management from Cheikh Anta Diop University in Dakar, one of the most prestigious universities in his country. However, his ambition did not stop there. Convinced that education is the key to progress, he pursued further studies and is currently completing a Master’s degree in International Trade Policy and Negotiation (pending thesis defense). During his graduate studies, Makhtar discovered CorpsAfrica, an organization that perfectly aligned with his aspirations. He was drawn to CorpsAfrica’s mission of mobilizing young Africans to serve in rural and underserved communities by working on sustainable development projects. He immediately recognized that this was the opportunity he had been seeking to apply his skills and knowledge for the benefit of his country. Makhtar joined CorpsAfrica/Senegal with determination and commitment, serving in the village of Boguel, where he worked on various community development projects. For him, serving his community is not just a responsibility but a source of personal fulfillment. He realized that the positive change he can bring to people’s lives can have a profound and lasting impact, which fueled his motivation to continue serving. In addition to his service with CorpsAfrica, Makhtar has always had international aspirations. His dream is to contribute to diplomacy and international relations, promoting cooperation between African nations and the rest of the world. He sees his experience with CorpsAfrica as a crucial step toward achieving this goal, as it has equipped him with leadership, project management, and problem-solving skills.
