Lynne Smit’s Expertise I am senior editor at Nature Africa, a position that combines my passion for science and my deep commitment to African development. Storytelling is what moves me. I enjoy understanding and ‘translating’ the most complex and technical of subjects, finding the right angle for the target audience, and writing copy that people want to read. My career includes working as a reporter and sub editor on publications, including the Financial Times. I worked for the WHO as senior writer, and have provided communications services to the UK’s Parliamentary Office for Science and Technology, UNESCO, The EU, and international conferences. I have a passionate belief in mentorship and skills transfer. Besides mentoring in journalism and public relations, I was a mentor in the World Federation of Science Journalists’ SjCOOP mentorship project, which trained 200 science journalists across Africa over a two year period. I currently work with Intercountry, coaching French executives in English language skills. Contact me at [email protected].
