A development social scientist and worker primarily focused on HIV/AIDS and Development. Formerly a Director at the International HIV/AIDS Alliance, overseeing NGO support programme development and methodological adaptation, such as the institutionalisation of participation.

Current interests include gender equity, men and masculinities, the informal economy of sex, HIV related citizenship and policy, intergenerational transmission of vulnerability of HIV affected youth and children affected by AIDS.

It is now widely recognized that a response to vulnerable children, including children affected by HIV, needs to be coherent and inclusive.
