Why I work for JAAG?

I am acutely aware of the deep divisions of privilege and wellbeing between different countries, and within the UK and many other countries.  In particular, I am concerned with the dominance of financial and technological forces on members of disadvantaged sectors of society.  I am keen to use my skills and experience to help redress this imbalance and lead to proper respect of the dignity and aspirations of all people.
