She is a Yale University Peace Fellow, Senior Advisor and Fellow at the Geneva Centre for Security Policy, and a fellow at the Weatherhead Center at Harvard University. A founding member of Women Mediators across the Commonwealth, she holds a Degree in Law as well as a Master’s Degree in International Relations. Neha has authored several publications including the book “Back from the brink: The 2008 mediation process and reforms in Kenya.”"}
