As a community and educational leader of more than 20 years, my academic qualifications and practitioner-based experiences have provided me with the unique position of merging previously parallel but separate professional pathways - education and sociopolitical bridge building interventions - between state and civil society actors both locally and internationally. Both areas provide frameworks and practical processes through which education is essential to the development and societal advancement of communities, making them better equipped and more resilient to many of the challenges we face today.
