Lene Guercke is a senior researcher for the Investigations Program at UC Berkeley’s Human Rights Center. She holds a PhD in Law from KU Leuven and an MA in Human Rights from University College London. For several years, she worked as an independent consultant and researcher on diverse human rights issues.
