Ms. Creselda O. Doble, known to her peers as “Dada”, is a development researcher and program professional whose work bridges science, innovation, governance, and inclusive development. She is a Senior Research Associate at UNIID-SEA under Ateneo Development Studies, reflecting her engagement in research and development work that connects knowledge institutions with social and policy needs. Ms. Doble brings an important public-service perspective that science must not remain only in laboratories and universities but must be translated into programs, partnerships, and opportunities that reach communities, students, teachers, and young innovators.
