Liz Robinson has worked with non-profits in the international development and education sectors for eight years, including across the Middle East, South Asia, and Sub-Saharan Africa. She first worked in Afghanistan in 2016, and is deeply committed to elevating and advancing education programs that transform children’s futures, and the systems that shape them.

Liz grew up in upstate New York, US, in a home where there could never be too many books. She credits her mother, a Librarian and poet, and her father, an effusive author (among other things) for first introducing her to the delight of stepping into a library, and feeling the wisdom of the world at your fingertips. Her current favorite book is The Naked Don’t Fear the Water, by Matthieu Aikins.

Liz has a BA from Tufts University in International Relations and Economics, a MA from University College London in Education and International Development, and a Graduate Certificate in Early Grade Reading in Developing Countries from University of Massachusetts, Amherst.
