Gavin Martyn

Gavin has spent the past decade leading humanitarian, development, and peacebuilding interventions across some of the world's most complex and crisis-affected settings, including Syria, Mali, Nigeria, Myanmar and more. He has led the development of country-wide strategies, mobilized $133M+ in resources from international sources (government agencies, private sector actors, corporate foundations), collaborated with a diverse range of government and local stakeholders, and led teams of 80 to 350+ persons. Gavin holds a MSc in Conflict Studies from the London School of Economics and an interdisciplinary Bachelor of Arts & Science from McGill University, where he studied ecology, biodiversity, international development and conflict. In his spare time, he's an avid lover of the outdoors and spends his time exploring the natural beauty of British Columbia and beyond.
