Director of Learning
Amy Gray (she/her/hers) is the Director of Learning at Thousand Currents. A believer in the power of learning and evaluation as critical components of social change, Amy has spent the last 13 years supporting organizations to develop systems, processes and tools to enhance their understanding of effectiveness and impact. A feminist herself, she uses feminist approaches to monitoring, evaluation and learning (MEL), while continuing to learn how to address and unpack power dynamics and the impacts of colonialism and capitalism in a more holistic way. Prior to joining Thousand Currents, she worked for RefugePoint, Oxfam America and ActionAid, designing and supporting the use of organizational MEL systems, and providing MEL advisory support for local humanitarian leadership and gender justice programs. Additionally, before focusing on MEL, she worked for a number of international development organizations in programmatic roles, overseeing and managing civic and political engagement as well as health and disability projects in countries in the Balkans, East Africa, South Asia and Latin America. In her spare time, you can find Amy going on adventures with her son or listening to live music.
