Biography
Florence Koenderink is an independent consultant in child protection reform with almost 20 years of experience in the field across four continents. Her professional experiences range from on-the-ground work to policy advice at national and international levels. In child protection, her specific focus was on disability inclusion and trauma-informed approaches. By launching the ‘Beyond the Trauma Wall Initiative,’ she broadened her scope beyond child protection to break down the trauma wall.
