Anna Hirsch-Holland, Programme Director for Funder Impact

Anna is a senior adviser and programme director specialising in multi-sector collaboration for sustainable development. With more than 12 years experience in the humanitarian and development sectors, she brings a unique perspective and skill-set to the field of cross-sector partnerships. Anna’s field-based experience centred around developing innovative initiatives that put local communities – particularly grassroots organizations and vulnerable populations – in the driving seat to prioritise and solve problems. Anna has also worked to support the coordination mechanisms and institutional change required to allow donors, governments, and civil society to work better together, and to make them accountable to the stakeholders they serve. Through her first-hand experience bringing people together from across sectors to create lasting solutions for communities on the ground, Anna brings a keen understanding of the challenges of achieving just and sustainable change, as well  real passion and belief in the transformative impact that can be generated by communities, civil society, government, and funders working together in equitable and genuine partnership.

Anna is a skilled facilitator, experienced at helping organisations and individuals to understand the specific set of challenges they face, as well as their unique value and ambitions for change, using these to map out pathways for success. Alongside this, she is adept in business development, and programme and grant management.
