Miriam Nkomalago
@miriamnkomalago
Legal researcher with expertise in policy analysis and compliance.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated legal researcher and policy analyst with extensive experience in conducting in-depth legal research and analysis across various sectors. My recent role as a Consultant Research Assistant at Afronomicslaw allowed me to support the desk review of the Tanga UWASA Green Bonds, where I outlined a baseline assessment report and conducted stakeholder interviews to gauge local awareness of this innovative financing model. My ability to synthesize complex information into actionable insights has been recognized by esteemed organizations such as the World Bank Group, where I contributed to the Business Enabling Environment Report, analyzing legislative developments across over 50 economies.
Throughout my career, I have demonstrated a strong commitment to enhancing compliance and regulatory frameworks. As a Digital Compliance Advisor at The Information Collective, I tracked privacy legislations and conducted comprehensive risk assessments, which led to a significant increase in client retention. My work has not only focused on legal compliance but also on promoting inclusivity, as evidenced by my research on employment opportunities for persons with disabilities in Tanzania. I am passionate about leveraging my legal expertise to drive positive change and contribute to sustainable development.
