Program Manager, Global Transitional Justice Initiative
Parusha Naidoo
As a Program Manager for ICSC’s Global Initiative for Justice, Truth, and Reconciliation (GIJTR), Parusha Naidoo provides support to GIJTR’s transitional justice programming across Africa, Asia, Latin America, and MENA. In 2015, she received a B.A. in Justice and Transformation from the University of Cape Town, and, in 2019, a M.A. in Global Affairs, with a specialty in Peace Studies from the University of Notre Dame. Her studies and professional focus center on the systemic and symptomatic causes of conflict and inequality. Driven by a belief in social justice that interrogates positionality, power, and access, she works toward a world where we do not simply ask, “Who has a seat at the table?,” but rather “Who has a voice in the room?” Before coming to ICSC, Parusha worked at the Life & Peace Institute in Kenya and the Restitution Foundation in South Africa.
