She has worked extensively within Africa and the South Pacific, Israel and the United States. She is an Associate Member of Wesley House, Cambridge and co-author of On the Significance of Religion for Deliberative Democracy (Routledge, 2023).

Part of a series of conversations on how Christian faith has inspired people to work for the empowerment of others. Seasoned practitioners, all based in Cambridge, share their stories of how faith has inspired them to work for empowerment in diverse contexts at home and abroad.

Speakers will offer 30 minutes input and there will be 30 minutes of open discussion. Refreshments to follow.

The series is open to all. It is sponsored by the Inclusive Church Group at St Paul’s and follows a series in 2024 on Inclusive Theology.
