About Me

Paula is passionate about human rights and development issues, and engages in a variety of forums focusing on environmental, social and global awareness and activism. She completed a BA in Gender and Development from Guelph and a MA in International Conflict Analysis and Conflict Resolution at the Norman Patterson School for International Affairs. She has worked and volunteered for several development organizations including the United Nations Association of Canada, Youth Challenge International, The Otesha Project, The Global Change Game, The Caribbean Development Bank and World Inter-Action Mondiale. Paula currently designs and supports the implementation of development projects in Asia, African and the Americas as a Program Officer for CHF (formerly knows as the Canadian Hunger Foundation) in Ottawa. Paula’s latest community engagement activity involved participating in a street retreat where she joined 15 others from across the country to live on the streets of Canada’s capital for three days and three nights to bear witness to the issues of homelessness. Paula believes that the solutions to global poverty can begin right in our own communities and she is determined to use her energy, ideas and enthusiasm to create positive change within herself and the world around her.
