Libby Johnston has ten years experience working with UNHCR (Geneva, Rome and South Africa) and has volunteered for various international organisations, NPOs, NGOs and CBOs. Her work mostly concentrates on vulnerable groups (i.e. the elderly, children, sexual minorities, HIV positive persons and abused women). This was also the main inspiration for her founding E.Wo.R.K. (Education for women, refugees and kids), a non-profit organization aiding refugees with livelihood activities and shelter.
