My work revolves around women’s rights and treatment within and across the African continent, with a particular focus on Ghana, Botswana, and Zimbabwe. I have work experience hosting panels in Dutch universities around intersectional approaches to development in an African context, and currently am designing and teaching a course for students at Maastricht University around the African continent. Within Africa, I worked to develop a female entrepreneurship strategy for a world bank incubator around the ‘Green Economy’ within Ghana, moving their current strategy from gender neutral to gender transformative. In addition to this I have been conducting research into women who smoke fish in Ghana and from an intersectional and gendered lens analyzing policy and NGO projects that try to reduce the harmful effects of fish- smoking.
