Barbara M.

I am a researcher, protection specialist, and trainer with over nine years of experience working across conflict-affected settings, including refugee response and post-crisis environments. I currently work as an independent consultant, taking on research, analysis, and training contracts on a project basis. Areas of work: - Research and analysis — political risk, conflict dynamics, protection, gender and social impact, policy evaluation. - Training design and delivery — curriculum development, facilitation, and learning programmes tailored to specific organisational needs and contexts. I have designed and delivered training across multiple countries. - Writing and synthesis — reports, policy briefs, and long-form analysis written clearly and concisely. Fluent in English, Portuguese, and Spanish. Open to consultancies, research projects, and training contracts.
