Tendai Makoni
Communications & Marketing OfficerTendai believes that a positive change today will make for a better future for our children. With an MSc in Development Studies and 12 years of experience working in the NGO sector, ranging from HIV and AIDS to sexual reproductive health and law, Tendai uses her strong analytical skills to mentor some of Amandla’s staff and find the stories and insights in the data Amandla collects that illustrate what’s really going on in the lives of the youth Amandla serves. This passion for providing people with the services they need through data, and the the diversity and collaborative nature of Amandla’s work is what grounds Tendai in her role as Data Coordinator.
