Christian Habla

Biography

I am a final year Master of Public Policy (MPP) Candidate at the Blavatnik School of Government. Prior to commencing at Oxford I worked as a commercial and investigative lawyer, in education and at a think tank. Besides specialising as a banking and finance lawyer, I managed strategic pro bono human rights litigations and also pro bono work for SANE Australia.

Deeply interested in addressing societal challenges, I completed my honours thesis on the law’s role in suicide prevention and, as a social entrepreneur, have co-founded and lead suicide prevention initiatives in social finance, education and strategic advocacy.
