What I'm looking for

I seek a role managing girls' education programs where I can design gender-responsive curricula, build partner networks, deliver high-quality learning, and scale advocacy and capacity-building initiatives.

I am a lecturer and education specialist with a PhD in Education and ongoing MSc Sustainable Development studies, focused on civic education, gender and development, and entrepreneurial citizenship. I combine academic research with practical curriculum design to create gender-responsive, evidence-based learning experiences.

At Mulungushi University I have designed and delivered high-quality courses and fellowships, supervised 12 master's students to completion, examined 15 dissertations, reviewed and updated curricula, and provided consultancy to affiliate colleges. My publications and conference presentations demonstrate a track record in civic education pedagogies, digital citizenship, and integrating entrepreneurship into teacher education.

I am committed to advancing gender equality through programme development, partner engagement, and capacity building, and I apply a collaborative, research-informed approach to advocacy, curriculum reform, and scalable educational interventions.
