Mumta Hargovan is a South African medical doctor, currently completing a masters in Public Health (specialisation in health systems and policy) at the University of Cape Town. She is a Knowledge Partner at Douglas Knowledge Partners, a strategic knowledge consultancy focused on magnifying the impact of ideas on the world.
“I am passionate about working at the intersection of social justice, public health and communications to amplify evidence-based social impact. I have a decade of experience in healthcare, research, and consulting. 
My background has given me a combination of academic and practical skills in working in interdisciplinary, international teams to develop solutions to social and public health challenges. I trained and worked as a medical doctor in South Africa and gained a master’s in public health, focusing on health systems and policy at the University of Cape Town. I furthered my project management and writing skills working at a strategic knowledge consultancy, which partners with organizations to communicate ideas for impact. Additionally, I have gained skills in advocacy, training and community building in the NGO sector, focusing on advancing women’s leadership in the planetary health movement.
 I am a systems thinker and enjoy connecting the dots across different sectors and disciplines. I bring an open mindset, creativity, and empathy to the teams I work with, and aim to cultivate environments that support connection, learning and growth.”
