Dear All,
Karl Feld, formerly of D3, will be in the office tomorrow afternoon to discuss his work with IREX. Karl has wide experience in management and executive positions at global commercial, non-profit and government research organizations. He has directed a variety of types of research and evaluation for public policy and international development programming, including work for USAID and DoS. Karl specializes in operating in difficult research environments which have included places like Afghanistan, war-time Bosnia-Herzegovina, Moldova, Sudan and Haiti.
Karl left D3 Systems on favorable terms on March 31. At this point he is considering making himself available for consulting assignments to organizations like IREX. Karl brings a wide variety of experience and knowledge to IREX which overlaps many of our organization's operational areas. These include: 1) deep knowledge of conflict resolution and stabilization initiatives in post-conflict societies from my role as a Principal Investigator for a very large, multi-year DoD project which studied this topic
2) audience measurement and successful technical consulting experience on media development projects for both commercial enterprises and development organizations. This is the work most of you are most familiar with.
3) wide experience with research on gender and women's issues around the world from my role as Principal investigator for D3's WIMC studies
4) technical competency as well as a public opinion research background in civil society activities from my technical work on D&G initiatives before entering the research field and subsequent research work;
