Hannah Gray is an Extern contributing to IFIT’s Security Engagement Practice Group (SEPG), Zimbabwe Bottom-Up Platform (Z-BUP), and Initiative on Apex Courts Appointments (IACA).
Before joining IFIT, Hannah was a Research Intern for the Centre on Armed Groups based in Geneva, and a visiting researcher at the West African Centre for Counter Extremism in Accra. In these roles she conducted conflict analysis and policy-relevant research on armed non-state actors and security challenges in various regions of Asia and West Africa. She has also supported multilateral diplomacy through an internship with the Permanent Mission of Malta at the Human Rights Council in Geneva.
Hannah holds a Joint Honours B.A. in International Relations and International Law from the University of Edinburgh. She is currently a final-year masters student at the Geneva Graduate Institute studying International and Development Studies, with a concentration on Conflict, Peace, and Security. Her scholarly research spans the climate-conflict nexus, the role of non-state actors in fragile and conflict-effected settings, emerging technologies in warfare, and geopolitics of humanitarian response – with a particular interest in how these dynamics shape pathways to sustainable peace.
