SKILLS
ABOUT HELEN AADNESGAARD
Currently, I work at a Dutch marine construction company where I help shape the organisation’s social impact on the local communities it operates in. This role gives me significant exposure to how large-scale profit-driven projects and industries operate and what levers can be pressed to instigate change. I do various in-country fieldwork doing what I do best, listening to people’s needs. I’m a researcher, writer and activist who completed a dual Research Master\'s in Gender Studies at Utrecht University and the University of York in 2023. My thesis was written in collaboration with South Africa’s movement of/for/by the poor, Abahlali baseMjondolo (AbM). In solidarity with AbM, I investigated the criminalisation of poverty and the intellectualism of the poor. My background is broad and varied. Previously I have worked as a programme manager, copywriter, social media specialist and business development officer. My skill set ranges from fast-paced hard-core advertising to feminist qualitative research—and everything in between. I\'m on a mission to leave the world more equal than I found it. A big, hairy, audacious goal, I know!
