Teagan Howlett

Volunteer Coordinator

Teagan is a sociological researcher, writer, and philomath with a professional focus on intersectionality and decolonialism. Holding a master's degree in sociology and a bachelor's in media studies, she is interested in how these frameworks shape global institutions and how we can meaningfully challenge the resulting systemic failures that manifest. As Volunteer Coordinator at PGF, Teagan acts as the first point of contact for PGF volunteers, and is actively cultivating a diverse collective of voices and lived experiences to help advance PGF's initiatives. She is currently building a comprehensive resource database to make basic mental health and therapy education openly and easily accessible, as well as a 'staff pick' library of development books to help filter out the sheer volume of self-help and development titles churned out globally each year. She also collaborates on conceptualizing a range of fundraising, initiative, and community outreach ideas and events. Being new to the world of non-profit work, she invites constructive feedback and suggestions from volunteers and the wider public alike, offering a safe, collaborative, and ever-evolving environment for learning and growth.
