Mei Lin Harley

MeiLin brings rich experience working with organisations big and small across many countries and cultures – including government agencies, international NGOs, and community organisations in Aotearoa, the Pacific, and North America.

Much of her work over the past 15 years has focussed on monitoring and evaluation in the Pacific region. Mei Lin is inspired by finding out what works in supporting the wellbeing of communities.

Mei Lin is multicultural and multilingual, including Chinese, Malay/Indonesian, and basic te reo.
