Open Society Foundation–London

In 2006, OSF–London hosted a series of OSI visitors and meetings on a variety of topics, including a strategy meeting on the network’s work related to natural resource revenue transparency and accountability and a joint Media Program and AfriMAP meeting on public service broadcasting in sub-Saharan Africa.

In close collaboration with OSI–Brussels, the international advocacy director engaged in initiatives related to the European Union and neighboring states, including continuing European support for the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria, promoting anticorruption practices in natural resource extraction industries, and advocating for a clearer and more constructive EU role in discussions on the future status of Montenegro.

The office also worked with network colleagues to evaluate existing OSI policy efforts and create strategic frameworks for campaigns related to ethnic profiling conducted by European law enforcement agencies.
