Early-career publications include editorial assistant roles on the 'Commonwealth Human Rights Law Digest' series and the essay collection 'Economic Social and Cultural Rights in Practice: The Role of Judges in Implementing Economic, Social and Cultural Rights' (both published by Interights, an international legal human rights NGO based in London).

Kate’s recent professional development has centred around inclusivity and accessibility, bringing concepts such as a rights-based approach to language into IIED’s editorial training and guidance. She is part of the ‘People in the Pictures’ group, a Bond-led multi-organisation team which delivered new ethical guidelines for the sector’s collection and use of images and stories, and contributed thoughts on accessibility and representation to an International Broadcasting Trust blog on podcasting (June 2021).
