Experience
Gender Expert- Immunization, Global Health Practice
Dec 2025 — Present
I advance gender-transformative immunization and health programming globally, supporting countries to design equitable, inclusive systems that reach the most underserved. In my role with UNICEF, I provide strategic leadership and technical support to governments and partners across regions, translating gender evidence into policy, programming, and measurable impact. I lead gender barrier analyses and support countries to operationalize findings into targeted interventions, partnerships, and national strategies.I advise on National Immunization Strategies and EPI policies, ensuring gender is embedded across planning, service delivery, and monitoring systems. I design and deliver regional and global capacity-building initiatives, including on gender integration and the female health workforce, and contribute to key technical and policy platforms.I also drive knowledge generation and thought leadership, capturing best practices, strengthening communities of practice, and supporting resource mobilization to scale gender-responsive programming. My work focuses on ensuring immunization systems are not only effective, but equitable and transformative, empowering women and girls, strengthening decision-making, and improving access for zero-dose and underserved populations.
