Providing support to journalists and media around the world

I work with organizations such as the U.N., the U.S. State Department and international media development and press freedom organizations to support professional and independent media. I specialize in working with media in conflict-affected and transitional environments.

With over twenty years of experience as a journalist, journalism educator, media development practitioner and researcher, I look forward to working with you to provide results-oriented services including assessments, formulations and evaluations. 

Some of my recent assignments have included:

• Support CPJ with their Afghanistan emergency response.

• Evaluation of EU-funded multi-country (sub-Saharan Africa) Covid response media support program.

• Lead on support to radio/journalism division at the University of the South Pacific.

• Evaluation of investigative reporting programme in Bangladesh.

• Study on current status and future options for university radio station in Rwanda. 

• Media training and gaming consultant for IOM.

• Team lead for a capability mapping of Fiji media.

• Feasibility study of information needs of internally displaced persons in Cameroon and Nigeria.

• Feasibility of a global safety certification label for news organizations.

I'm a member of International Media Development Advisers, a group of senior international development specialists.
