Research Fellow, Pacific Institute on Pathogens, Pandemics and Society, Simon Fraser University
I am a Research Fellow and PhD scholar at the Pacific Institute on Pathogens, Pandemics and Society at Simon Fraser University, Canada. My research investigates feminist values and power structures in global health governance processes.
Previously, I was a political adviser at GIZ (Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit), where I consulted the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) on One Health and pandemic prevention, preparedness and response. Prior to this I worked at Chatham House, the European Commission and at an NGO.
I completed a M.Sc. in Global Health with a specialization in Disaster Risk Management from the University of Copenhagen, Denmark, with time spent at Kilimanjaro Christian Medical College in Moshi, Tanzania, and a B.Sc. in Development Studies with a major in Human Geography from Lund University, Sweden.
I am a contributing member in the Gender & International Politics Working Group at Polis180.
