01 / About me

Law with a purpose.
Policy with impact.

I am G. Febiola Sirait, a law graduate from the Faculty of Law, Universitas Jambi, with experience in legal advocacy, legal drafting, regulatory analysis, and multi-stakeholder engagement across government and civil society settings.

My work has involved translating legal and policy issues into practical collaboration — from supporting peatland governance and community engagement to advancing animal welfare through research, policy dialogue, and institutional cooperation.

I am particularly interested in the relationship between law, public policy, institutional practice, and meaningful social impact.
