Current work

Anna works across climate diplomacy and adaptation, managing projects that support the least developed countries (LDCs) in international climate negotiations. She has implemented capacity and partnership-building initiatives with partners across Africa, the Asia-Pacific and Europe.

She is currently pursuing an MSc in disaster studies. Her interests centre on the politics of disasters and reconstruction – how risk is framed, whose voices shape recovery, and what is considered worth protecting or rebuilding, particularly in climate-vulnerable and politically-charged contexts.
