Principal Training and Development Officer
Nigeria

I am a development researcher and trainer at a government owned research institute in Nigeria. My work focuses on generating research and evidence on social protection policies and systems and the non-economic and transformational impacts of social protection programmes in fragile, conflict and violent settings. Particularly, am focused on impacts such as peace, social cohesion (i.e. inclusion, participation, social relations, belonging, legitimacy and security) and human rights.
