To make it easier for partners to communicate with the PIF team, we are standardizing email addresses for all PIF staff. PIF team members who have previously used nilc.org email addresses, will now use pifcoalition.org emails for PIF communications. The same is true for consulting members of the PIF team.

[email protected] , and current emails for the current PIF team are:
