GLOBAL POLICY AND ADVOCACY MANAGER | GLOBAL POVERTY PROJECT

You’re currently working as a Global Policy and Advocacy Manager for the Global Poverty Project (GPP). What does it entail?   

Working on policy and advocacy campaigns for GPP is pretty varied. At the moment, my specific focus is on improving policies that can impact progress on gender equality and access to reproductive health, especially in the developing world. Specifically I’m building a campaign for the United Nations Population Fund to demonstrate visible support to governments for increased investment in the rights and needs of adolescents and youth in something called the Post-2015 Development Agenda. Elements that my team campaign on under this umbrella include crucial things like protection from violence, access to contraceptive services and youth participation in decision-making that affects them.
