Bio
I am Senior Advocacy Coordinator in the Southeast Asia Initiative at the Open Society Institute. During urban planning graduate school, I studied mapping and ICT4D.
Project(s)
The Open Society Burma Project/Southeast Asia Institute makes grants to organizations that promote human rights and foster civil society and democratic development in Southeast Asia. Projects focused on Burma support external advocacy efforts that promote change in Burma; documentation of rights abuses that complement advocacy efforts; community empowerment and skills training projects that aim to strengthen civil society inside Burma and along its borders; and media and information dissemination to people inside Burma and the international community. Projects in other countries in Southeast Asia concentrate on human rights advocacy, access to justice for vulnerable groups, alternative media development, and citizen participation in good governance.
