Anne-Marie SchrevenAnne-Marie Schreven is a development professional with over 25 years’ experience in mainly Asia and Africa. Her areas of expertise are capacity development in local governance and  leadership for organizational change. At the start, she worked as an advisor / project manager supporting organizational performance of NGOs (in India, Rwanda and Ethiopia). Later on, she assisted in reform processes of national and sub-national governments (in Bhutan, (back to) Rwanda, Myanmar). In 2017, she joined VNG International in Myanmar as country representative and team leader of community development and local governance projects focusing on strengthening capacities for democratic local governance. As a consultant, she carries out project evaluations and (organizational) capacity assessments. As people are responsible for their own change, her role, as she sees it, is working with them to find answers to their questions and challenges, keeping an eye on achieving expected results and maintaining respectful relationships.  Her passion is understanding and dealing with (intercultural) complexity and change. In capacity development, there is no end to learning and she encourages others to learn and grow. Though this is serious business, a good sense of humor often does wonders too!
