Elizabeth Linder
Politics and Government Specialist, Europe, Middle East and Africa
Facebook

 

A California native, Elizabeth joined Facebook four years ago during the very week the company reached its 100 million active user milestone.  After working with a small but growing team to build Facebook's public relations strategy in Australia, Canada, Europe, India, and Japan, Elizabeth moved across the Atlantic, where she developed the government and politics outreach program across the Europe, Middle East and Africa region and now serves as Facebook's global governance strategist.  Elizabeth liaises with government agencies, public administrations, political figures, and think tanks across the region at the local, national, and international levels to chart out effective strategies for 21st-century leadership, digital diplomacy and transparent and open government initiatives in a social media era. 

Prior to joining Facebook, Elizabeth focused on politics and education at YouTube as part of Google's Global Communications and Public Affairs team.  A scholar of French and Italian history, language and literature who wrote her thesis on the nineteenth-century metropolis, Elizabeth graduated Phi Beta Kappa from Princeton University.  She currently resides in London.
