About Rina

I am an International Development, Business Strategy and Urban Development Consultant with over 10 years of experience supporting development programmes, NGOs, public institutions and local organisations.

I help organisations turn complex challenges into clear strategies, viable projects and practical implementation plans. My experience combines project design, business strategy, economic model development, social marketing, stakeholder engagement and inclusive urban development.

My key areas of expertise include:

• Business strategy and organisational development
• Business models and economic sustainability strategies
• Project and programme design
• Market, stakeholder and context analysis
• Social marketing and behaviour change strategies
• Monitoring, evaluation and results frameworks
• Strategic planning and implementation roadmaps
• Partnership and consortium development
• Qualitative research, interviews and participatory assessments
• Urban planning, local governance and inclusive public spaces
• Concept notes, proposals, reports and strategic documents

I have extensive experience working in complex environments and coordinating with NGOs, public authorities, communities, civil society organisations, donors and private-sector partners.

My approach is both strategic and practical. I analyse needs, identify opportunities, structure realistic solutions and develop tools that can be implemented, monitored and scaled.

I can support clients with business plans, sustainable economic models, project proposals, social marketing strategies, research, strategic reports, monitoring frameworks and development programmes.

I am particularly interested in assignments related to international development, social innovation, inclusive business, urban development, public services, youth engagement, community participation and organisational strategy.
