Warm greetings Friends,

I am writing to personally share with you the news that I am embarking on a new phase in my career.

I have had the incredible honor of working as Co-Director of Foreign Policy In Focus at the Institute for Policy Studies. since 2003.

As I think back over the eleven years, carrying forward struggles against Firestone, AFRICOM, and other global actors running amuck, I have learned from you and worked with you to build a world free of poverty, inequality, and injustice. For that I am enormously grateful!

I am thrilled to be moving to a new role that continues the work of advancing our collective struggles for economic and social justice. I will be taking a position as Global Client Principal for Social Impact Programs at ThoughtWorks, a technology firm committed to building a better world. I will serve as a bridge between development, humanitarian, and social justice organizations and technologists building innovations to sustain movements and change our world.

I will maintain an ongoing relationship with IPS (as Associate Fellow) and can still be reached via this email . For more urgent items, please contact me on emira...@gmail.com. I look forward to staying connected!

A luta continua!!

Emira
