Biography

I am an award-winning author, peacebuilder, and researcher, as well as a Professor of Political Science at Barnard College, Columbia University. I am the author of The Frontlines of Peace, Peaceland, and The Trouble with the Congo, in addition to articles for publications such as The New York Times, The Washington Post, Foreign Affairs, and Foreign Policy. I have been involved intimately in the world of international aid for more than twenty years. I have conducted research in twelve different conflict zones, from Colombia to Somalia to Israel and the Palestinian territories. I have worked for Doctors Without Borders in places like Afghanistan and Congo, and at the United Nations headquarters in the United States. My research has helped shape the intervention strategies of several United Nations departments, foreign affairs ministries, and non-governmental organizations, as well as numerous philanthropists and activists. I have also been a featured speaker at the World Summit of Nobel Peace Laureates, the U.S. House of Representatives, and and the United Nations Security Council.
