Additional Info

Occupation: Director, Oral Testimony Programme
Company: Panos Institute
Address: 9 White Lion Street
City: London
Zip Code: N1 9PD
Country: UK
Accomplishments: I have for some years been working on an Oral Testimony Project gathering and disseminating personal interviews with those displaced by development projects (dams, mines, conservation schemes etc). The aim is to allow people with first-hand experience of resettlement to speak of what it has meant to them and their communities. By gathering and communicating personal experience - positive and negative - of forced relocation, and especially of its social and cultural impact, Panos and its partners aim to contribute a crucial qualitative dimension to the research and debate on this issue. Interviews are gathered in partnership with local/national NGOs, in local languages, by local people specially trained for the purpose. The interviews are published in community and other publications/media, in English and original languages. For more on this project, and the 7 collections currently underway, see Panos' website and the OTP section.
Highest Degree: Masters in History, Sussex University, UK, 1989
