Clara Dybbroe Viltoft

development consultant

f(l)air consult is a consultancy platform that offers a range of services in the fields of development, human rights and social justice.

I work with you and not for you, with the aim of empowering my clients - while assisting them in reaching their goals.

I believe in cooperation, in active and global citizenry, and in equality and inclusion when we work towards transformation together.

About

“I founded f(l)air consult so that I could consolidate my work and professional competences with allies, networks, and passion projects. This company is literally a manifestation of how I have organised my life.”

I have worked and volunteered in the non-profit sector for almost 10 years with various human rights and social justice initiatives besides acquiring a BA in Peace and Conflict Studies with additional International Law courses.

While obtaining my Masters of Philosophy in Criminology, Law, and Society at University of Cape Town, I engaged with NGOs such as Scalabrini Centre of Cape Town, Lawyers for Human Rights and Cape Mental Health.

Besides regularly engaging in academia as a writer, peer reviewer and speaker, I work on a variety of projects and tasks related to migrancy, integration, historically marginalized and -oppressed populations drawing on theory and methods from the fields of human rights, development and social justice, crime, conflict, and violence.
