About Greta Heller
With a strong commitment to child protection, humanitarian advocacy and emergency response, I am dedicating my career to advancing the protection of vulnerable populations. In my role with the United Nations in South Sudan I focus on monitoring and reporting on the 6 grave violations against children\'s rights, while also supporting capacity-building for military, government and community actors. Alongside this, I bring humanitarian experience from Türkiye, Ukraine and France, where I worked on emergency response, MHPSS and project management, developing strong skills in teamwork, cultural sensitivity and adaptability. Building on my academic background in psychology and international humanitarian action, I am eager to further expand my expertise and contribute to creating safer environments for children and communities worldwide.
