Introducing Clémence Quint
Clémence is Director and co-founder at Magenta Consulting where she and her team use behavioural insights to make sustainable and scalable change in some of the poorest, war torn and least developed parts of the world, seeking to to maximise the effectiveness and efficiency of communications interventions in support of social impact; in places like Nigeria, Tunisia, Afghanistan and Lebanon.
The focus of their projects so far has been civic education, governance and stabilisation, preventing violent extremism, counter-narcotics and women’s empowerment.
Clémence holds a Master’s degree in International Relations with a concentration in Conflict and Development Studies from Sciences Po Lille. She speaks native French as well as conversational Spanish and basic Farsi, and is currently learning Arabic.
