It was my great pleasure to work alongside Nidhi at the Coalition for Urban Transitions. Nidhi was responsible for translating a global body of evidence on national urban policy into a programme of policy advice and technical assistance in four countries: China, Ghana, Mexico and Tanzania. Nidhi built strong relationships with partners in each country, empowering and resourcing them to deliver high-quality and locally-appropriate support while ensuring alignment and linkages with the Coalition’s global messages and networks.
