Thrilled to be partnering with Preethi, Nicola and the team at Crisis Action!
ANNOUNCEMENT: New Board Co-Chairs for Crisis Action We are excited to announce that Crisis Action now has two new co-chairs for its board of directors: Regan Ralph and Preethi Herman [She/ Her]. Two trailblazers in their own right, they succeed another trailblazer, Anna Neistat, who has now stepped down from the board following seven years of sterling service on the Board, four of them as board chair. Our first female chair, Anya brought the depth of her experience as a leader of the global human rights movement, with leadership positions at both Amnesty and Human Rights Watch and now as head of the Docket at the Clooney Foundation for Justice, where she’s leading groundbreaking developments in international justice. The Board and team are so grateful to Anya for her winning combination of intellect, commitment, collegiality, courage and sheer inspiration. We will miss her but continue to collaborate with her and wish her the very best. We are fortunate that we will bear the loss of Anya with the gain of our two new co-chairs. Regan Ralph, founder and former CEO of the Fund for Global Human Rights, is another doyenne of the international human rights movement. In her twenty years at the Fund, Regan was responsible for channelling more than $110m to over 800 frontline activists, groups, and movements around the world. Prior to that, Regan was Vice President for Health and Reproductive Rights at the National Women’s Law Center in Washington D.C and from 1992-2001, Regan helped build and ultimately directed the Women’s Rights division of Human Rights Watch. Regan is a graduate of Harvard University and Yale Law School and studied international law at the London School of Economics and Arabic at the American University in Cairo. Preethi Herman is the CEO and Co-Founder of Nguvu Collective, a social impact enterprise that helps emerging women changemakers to become strong social change leaders and drive positive impact at scale in Africa and Asia. Preethi has spent the last two decades working with marginalised communities across the world and supporting their efforts in citizen-led social change. Prior to setting up Nguvu Collective, she was the head of the Change.org Foundation where she led a team engaging over 100 million people in citizen-led campaigns across Asia, Europe and Latin America. She also set up Change.org as the people's platform for driving impact in India. Preethi is an inaugural Obama Fellow and Skoll Senior Fellow with a never dying enthusiasm and passion for women’s leadership, helping startups, technology for social change, and citizen led social impact around the world. The Board and Crisis Action team are thrilled to have Regan and Preethi bringing their wisdom and experience as leaders and activists to guide and support Crisis Action in this exciting new chapter.

Today I'm sharing some big news. At the end of this year, I'll be stepping down as President and CEO of the Fund for Global Human Rights—20 years after starting the organization. It has been an incredible journey. Working with such a talented and committed team of staff, a supportive Board of Directors, and deeply inspiring human rights activists the world over has been the privilege of a lifetime. We have accomplished so much, sometimes in the face of formidable odds, and I am proud of how our support to activists and movements has transformed lives. The Fund is stronger than ever, and it’s a good time to bring in new leadership, energy, and ideas. Keep an eye out for updates as we move through this transition over the next year. https://lnkd.in/gG5pGKpp
