Eva Jespersen started her UN journey of promoting people-centered development as researcher for UNICEF’s ground-breaking Adjustment with a Human Face. It inspired ‘human development’ and in turn the sustainable development agenda. Moving forward to partnership building and communication with wide audiences, Eva recently managed the Human Development Reports Office as deputy (2009-2017).

Eva applied people-centered approaches to country analysis, migration and rural development in East Asia, while also heading the regional UN team on quality assurance for CCAs; in Florence, guided the Social Monitor-CEE/CIS, and the Report Cards on children in rich countries, which made unprecedented global headlines.

Indicators and measurement stimulate debate, action and innovative approaches: Eva is proud of her inclusion in the UN Secretary General’s Expert Group on the Data Revolution. She remains passionate about social justice and the empowerment of communities and individuals to lead lives they have reason to value, within planetary boundaries.

More recently, Eva has been looking more closely on the challenges to social policy and social protection from the spread of AI and other technology.
