Isabel Davies

My name is Isabel, I am 23 years old and I grew up in London, UK. I graduated from Leeds University with a first class degree in BA Geography and Economics (International). My core interest lies in Urban Geography, particularly the fields of Urban Futures, Urban Design and Urban Social Movements, and how those from marginalised identities might better assert their right to (remake) the city in their own vision. 

I think DEAL is a great framework for mobilising people in different contexts by taking a local focus but at a global scale. I want to get involved in different DEAL initiatives across the world to gain a better perspective on how these tools are used to mobilise communities and encourage multi-stakeholder collaboration. We have a lot to learn from each other and I'm really excited to join the DEAL community :)
