Alejandra joined the Global Brigades team in March 2020 as a Program Associate. In January 2023, Alejandra took the role as GB Program Associate Manager. She is excited by the Holistic Model and the opportunity to take part in implementing it in the Refugee context in Greece, and supporting volunteers in learning about global issues. Prior to Global Brigades, Alejandra worked as a project manager at Fundacion Rode (Spain) where she worked with partner organizations in Peru, Kenya, Ivory Coast and DR Congo, and public and private donors to design, fund and implement community development projects (WASH, education, health, agriculture).
Alejandra earned a Bachelor’s of Arts in humanities from University of Navarra in Spain, and later a Masters in Social development from the University of Sussex in England. When she’s not supporting the PA team, volunteers and programming in Greece, Alejandra loves crocheting, spending time with friends and family, and time outdoors.
