Conflict, Peace, and Being a Woman in Between | Jane Holloway | TEDxPathumWanWomen |
![]() |
When a man fighting against the Burmese army asks Jane Holloway if she feels scared working in a conflict zone, she replies by saying no. In this talk, Holloway discusses her experience operating as a social worker in areas devastated by war, suffering from a lack of resources, and facing constant conflict. Jane Holloway is a sustainable development and social justice expert and currently the Social Impact Director on gender equality at Dragonfly360. She has worked for UNHCR to assist refugees in Myanmar and for the Mae Fah Luang Foundation in Afghanistan to help opium farmers including women earn legitimate means of income. Jane has also worked at the Thailand Institute of Justice on criminal justice reform on issues related to drug policy, incarcerated women, human trafficking and transnational organized crime. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
