Dr. Millogo’s work lies at the intersection of environmental dynamics, health crises, and adaptation policies. He is particularly interested in ecosystems that are conducive to the development of diseases and how communities and public institutions respond to health and climate risks. He also works on optimizing the spatial deployment of new technologies to combat vector-borne diseases, such as gene drive and Wolbachia. Dr. Millogo was a scholarship recipient and was named the best GIS student in Burkina Faso in 2012. Committed to action research and the training of young researchers, Abdoul-Azize Millogo actively contributes to strengthening national capacities in geomatics applied to development issues in West Africa.
