Iina L., Policy officer

I joined the European External Action Service as a policy officer in 2020 to work on cross-cutting issues in EU peace and security work. I focus in particular on the interlinkages between climate change and security, but also on health, natural resources and migration in the context of crisis management in EU external action. My work includes developing new policies and practices, drafting documents and briefings and of organizing different events.

The European External Action Service is the diplomatic service of the EU and in my work this translates to me being daily in touch with partners from around the globe.

Before my current position, I worked as a press officer in the European Parliament and as the human rights focal point at the EU Delegation in Israel. My academic background consists of a Masters in Social Sciences and a Masters in EU External Relations and Diplomacy.
