Daniel is a Project Manager in our West Africa programme and has over ten years’ experience in designing and managing peacebuilding initiatives throughout the region.

For the past five years, he has led on the delivery of Conciliation Resources’ portfolio of participatory research and peacebuilding projects in West Africa with a particular focus upon pastoralist-farmer violence in Nigeria, the Boko Haram insurgency in North East Nigeria and the spread of violence by proscribed armed groups from the Sahel to the Burkina Faso-Côte d’Ivoire-Ghana tri-border region.
