Career Summary:
I have a wide experience in women in development (WID) related issues since I moved from Jakarta to Bali in 1990. Beside my major experience as a lecturer in home economics and demography with the ANU and recently in the women’s empowerment with Newcastle University, I conducted many research and published some articles (in magazines, newspaper, books and journals) from 1984 up to now.

As part of my profession as an educator in Bali, I have undertaken many survey studies and interventions in the Balinese villages. These works involved a great deal of work in the establishment, support and strengthening of women’s group and organizations. Some interventions were made available by the University in Singaraja I work with, other programs were part of the projects I was employed. Such as, in 1998, I was appointed as a local consultant for the WID unit at the North Bali Groundwater Irrigation and Water Supply project funded by the European Union and Ministry of Public Work. In 1999, I undertook a need assessment on “gender sensitive” measurement for the HIV/AIDS care and prevention program in Bali financed by AusAID.

Before coming to Bali in the mid of 90’s, I had training and experience in media production, information technology and hospitality industry.
