Daniel completed an MSc in International Development Studies at the University of Amsterdam, looking at food insecurity in the UK.

Projects Daniel has worked on included looking at how CSAN, a national network of charities, had been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, and later how the network should best respond to the Ukrainian Refugee Crisis.
