Bethany Gum

Brief Biography:

Independent consultant passionate about making an impact in the development sector to drive meaningful change at the intersection of gender, intercultural education and violence prevention. My 8 years of professional experience has taken me across the world, where I've developed my knowledge to conduct impactful research, develop educational resources including the publication of my first children's book, and implement programmes that aim to support women and children living in contexts of vulnerability. I work through decolonised research frameworks and feminist principles to pave the way for sustainable change for a more gender-equitable, violence-free world.

I offer consultancy services in the development sector to NGOs and academics in the field of gender and education. I can support with qualitative research and MEL design, writing and editing, project design, implementation and coordination, training, and resource development. Please feel free to get in touch or connect on LinkedIn!
