Levi turned a vague brief into two publishable quotes in half an hour. Prepared, precise, and generous with sources.
About
Lead analyst on adaptation finance across East Africa. Twelve years spent reading the fine print of national adaptation plans, and able to explain in plain terms which commitments are funded and which are aspiration.
Before joining the Institute, advised three national delegations at consecutive COP negotiations, and led the modelling team behind Kenya's county-level adaptation costings. Works in English and Kiswahili, and is comfortable on camera.
Takes background calls, on-record interviews and written quotes. For anything outside climate finance, will say so and point you to someone better placed.
Works in English, Kiswahili.

We needed someone who could explain adaptation finance without jargon on a two-hour deadline. She did it, and checked the figures afterwards.
Yara HaddadJanuary 2026
Clear, direct, and honest about what falls outside her expertise. The follow-up reading list was more useful than the call itself.
