Kelly Sharp

Kelly Sharp is an international consultant on rural livelihoods, particularly in the agriculture sector. Most recently she worked for the International Labour Organization in Geneva on their Rural Economy objective, promoting decent work on plantations and in forestry. She has a masters degree from the University of British Columbia, where she studied the effects of resettlement on the food security and nutrition of smallholder farmers in Malawi. She is often traveling, and thanks to an upbringing on Canada's West Coast, her favourite trips involve adventures out in nature.
