No dictatorships, failed states or countries at war have reliable information. Conversely, peaceful communities always have access to it. There is indeed a link between information and peace. Caroline Vuillemin, Director of Fondation Hirondelle explains why.
Caroline Vuillemin has been Director General of Fondation Hirondelle since 1 January 2017. Her career reflects a commitment to international development, particularly with Africa. She joined Fondation Hirondelle in December 2003. Initially in charge of the Radio Okapi project (the United Nations radio station in the DRC created in partnership with Fondation Hirondelle), she became Director of Operations in 2008. Prior to Fondation Hirondelle, she worked for the International Foundation for Electoral Systems (IFES) where she participated in numerous electoral observation missions in the DRC, Rwanda, Burundi, South Africa, Nigeria and Congo-Brazzaville. Caroline Vuillemin holds a Bachelor's degree from the Institute of Political Studies in Lyon, France, complemented by a degree in International Relations from Georgetown University in Washington, DC.
