I'm hiring a Chief of Staff to work with me and the leadership team @B_I_Tweets. https://t.co/ALERkWZwci I'm obviously biased, but I think it will be a rewarding, stretching and really fun job. Quick thread on the day to day below 1/n

Learn about behavioural change and gender divides in a war torn world with me and @ClemenceQuint talking A Load of BS.

I might be biased; but this is fascinating and poignant in equal measure.

Self-promotion is welcome. Bonus if you include the country where it’s based, sectors of focus, and/or a link to where I can find research products (defined broadly). Any language is okay.

“To give women back the time they give to home care, we need to target men. Through experimentation @UNDPAccLabs @UNDP_Lebanon we learned the best hook to change behavior is self- reliance. You want to be a man, you better learn how to iron your shirt!” @lilian_az @qatar_fund
