For six years she worked at Bethany Project as a Programme Officer implementing livelihoods programmes in the Mazvihwa community. 2014 marked a turnaround in her career when she joined Muonde Trust to work directly with her community to support indigenous innovation. Alice has a keen interest on girls and women empowerment.
