Ally Baholela

I am a veterinarian and academician with a Bachelor's degree in Veterinary Medicine from Sokoine University of Agriculture (SUA). My research focuses on One Health action research, with a strong emphasis on preventing zoonotic diseases. As a junior faculty member at SUA's College of Veterinary Medicine and Biomedical Sciences, I have been actively involved in various research projects aimed at the prevention and control of zoonotic diseases, particularly rabies.

Beyond research, I am passionate about mentoring and empowering the next generation of veterinarians. As a patron of veterinary student organizations at SUA, I guide young professionals in leadership development, public health initiatives, and animal welfare advocacy. Through collaboration with like-minded professionals, I strive to drive meaningful change in research, policy, and community engagement, ultimately contributing to a healthier and more sustainable future for both animals and people.
