Sue Turrell - Executive Director
Sue Turrell has been the Executive Director of WOMANKIND Worldwide since
January 2007. Sue caught the development bug in her early twenties, during
a year teaching sciences in a secondary school in Kenya. She lived and worked
overseas for eight years, as a teacher, trainer, project manager and researcher
in Kenya, Indonesia, Australia, the Gaza Strip and Zambia. After returning
to the UK in 1997 she worked for Education Action International and Christian
Aid, managing programmes in Africa, the Middle East and Central Asia.
Sue worked her way up through the development sector gaining skills and
experience in programme management; working with and through partner organisations;
advocacy and campaigning work; fundraising; financial management; strategic
development and leadership; governance and accountability. She has a BA,
an MA in development and an MBA.
