About Dr. Lisette Schutte
Dr Lisette Schutte
*Program Manager, Senior Technical Advisor, and Behavioral Change Specialist*
I am an experienced program manager and senior technical advisor, specializing in public health and digital and offline program development, with a focus on behavior change and a user-centered approach. Currently I lead solutions in connected diagnostics for malaria, cervical cancer and hypertension/diabetes across Kenya, Nigeria, Ghana and Tanzania at PharmAccess Foundation, in Amsterdam. Previously, I drove digital initiatives across diverse regions, from South Africa and Indonesia to the Caribbean, harnessing digital platforms for impactful behavior change interventions, from sexual health education to mental well-being support for youth. My keen eye for interdisciplinary collaboration and stakeholder engagement has enabled the forging of partnerships with donors, implementers, and governments, advancing effective health promotion programs. With a multicultural upbringing in Ethiopia and Zambia and a sprinkle of humor, enthusiasm, and perseverance, I approach my work with a blend of expertise and relatability that fosters innovation and results.
