Delia Harrington’s Biography

Read Full Bio →

A lifelong activist, I've been working in human rights and international development since 2009. I worked in study abroad administration for three years, and led or participated in eight different higher ed experiences abroad, ranging from two weeks to three months in length. My writing combines my love of culture and travel with my drive to make the world a better place and to understand the complex nature of global conflict, especially for women and gender-non-conforming folks.
