Louise Gough is the Chief Operating Officer of The Trinity Challenge, a charity that supports the creation of data-driven solutions to help protect against global health threats.

Between 2010-2023, Louise worked at King’s College London, and delivered a range of initiatives that amplified the social impact of the university in collaboration with students, staff, and a wide range of partners.

Her interests lie in both setting up and delivering initiatives that meet global challenges, and how to measure social impact, and she has worked across a range of issues such as forced displacement, women’s leadership, global health and international development. Her current focus at the Trinity Challenge is antimicrobial resistance in low- and middle- income countries.

From 2008-2010, Louise worked in community development for a social enterprise in Malawi. Louise has a BA in Geography and a MSc in International Poverty Reduction and Development Management from the University of Birmingham.
