Francesca
Bird

Junior Consultant

"Advocating for equitable health access through informed policy and active public engagement is essential for creating resilient communities and promoting a healthier and more sustainable future for everyone."

Since obtaining a Master’s in Public Health from the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, Francesca has deepened her understanding of the complex determinants of health and their implications at the policy level. Her diverse experiences have broadened her global perspective on healthcare systems, health policy and fuelled her commitment to enhancing sustainable access to healthcare.

Francesca has previously worked for a clinical research organisation, a healthcare consultancy and within the non-profit sector. As such, she brings experience working with a range with clients and stakeholders from pharmaceutical companies, NGOs, UN organisations and healthcare systems globally.

Outside of her professional experience, Francesca is currently collaborating with members of the Neglected Topical Disease NGO Network to publish her master’s thesis: examining the barriers, challenges and opportunities for neglected tropical disease programs operating in Nigeria’s areas of conflict.
