We’re delighted to announce that Joanne Moore has joined the EPN Board of Directors.  Joanne brings to EPN 25 years of consulting experience on international development.  Her consulting firm provides business development, project implementation and training to USAID implementing partners in Africa and Haiti.  She has also partnered with Duke University’s Dr. Bob Malkin to increase access to antiretroviral drugs for the prevention of mother to child HIV transmission.

Joanne and EPN first discovered each other back in 2014 through Professor Dov Pasternak and his work in Niger.  Joanne quickly became a fan of Dov’s, of Farmers of the Future and of EPN.  Since then, she has leant her considerable experience and creative ideas to the Farmers of the Future project and looks forward to becoming more deeply involved in EPN’s work as a member of the Board.

In addition to Eliminate Poverty NOW, Joanne serves on the boards of American Associates of Ben Gurion University and the American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee.  She has a BA in African and Afro-American Studies from Brandeis University and a M.Sc. from the London School of Economics.
