People at CRIN

CRIN is fundamentally about children’s rights, less about the individuals, but we need people to make this happen. CRIN has a core team of staff, some based in London, others elsewhere. We are governed by a board called the CRIN Council. Importantly, much of our work would not happen without the many people who contribute their time and expertise for free.
