I am James Mitofsky, a researcher and activist focused on humanitarian crises and international cooperation.

As democracy is further endangered by new behaviors and dynamics around the globe, I'm interested in how to preserve our communication and protect a global order of peace. I believe the problems of this moment demand new ways of thinking about multilateral collaboration.

I've volunteered for the Red Cross (la Croix Rouge Française) and published research with Tufts' Institute for Democracy and Higher Education (IDHE). These experiences shape how I think about the intersection of policy, diplomacy, and humanitarian action, and I'm constantly learning from others who share my motivation to help the world through policy.

I grew up in Vermont's Northeast Kingdom, spent three years in Caen, France, and currently live in Bonn, Germany. I speak French fluently and have notions of German.
