Ask Me Anything – NGOs and education
Please join us for our second event on Thursday 7 April 2022 at 16:00 CET (Central European Time/ Copenhagen Time) / 9:00 (Mountain Time USA).
Place: Zoom: https://ucph-ku.zoom.us/j/64701814707?pwd=dG1mSzNGRGY0WXY0ejRMaUF3MWtsZz09
The event will be an online Ask Me Anything (AMA) on Zoom and will last approx. 30-45 minutes followed by networking on the platform Wonder. The AMA will feature three panellists from the NGO and education field who will talk about how they use their skills within qualitative research to navigate between municipalities and countries for support and approval, corporations for funding as well as the complex web of translating the value of the research to others.
Registration
The three panellists
Riccardo Mioli
Riccardo is currently working as country director and started in the humanitarian sector through his MACA thesis on child trafficking and migration practices in Southern Ethiopia to support NGOs projects development. Throughout his career, Riccardo has used cultural analysis and qualitative research throughout the humanitarian field as well as broader programmes and organisation management roles across different countries (Pakistan, Bangladesh, Afghanistan, Yemen, Lebanon). Riccardo wants to let you know that while cultural analysis in itself is not a core part of my work as country director, its approaches and lessons remain a very valuable guideline and source of inspiration to make humanitarian work more accountable, culturally sensitive and inclusive.
Ida Holmgren
Ida works as a project manager at Lund University Commissioned Education and works mainly with international capacity building programmes. She is a MACA graduate from 2015 and holds a bachelor’s degree in International Relations and Applied Linguistics.
