Dr. Kirstie Kwarteng

Researcher | Consultant | Cultural Curator

Welcome! I’m Kirstie

I am a researcher, consultant, and cultural curator specializing in migration, diaspora engagement, and international development. I bridge research, policy, and practice to help organizations understand and engage diaspora communities. My work explores how diasporas contribute to economic, cultural, and social change at home and abroad. I am passionate about amplifying transnational stories, preserving cultural heritage, and using research to make transformative impact.

“A consummate professional who exceeded every expectation. Kirstie brought clarity, presence, and care that truly elevated our event. I highly recommend her for speaking or moderating engagements at the highest level.”
