Raelyn Campbell is Senior Program Officer for the Asia-Pacific Region at the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation,[1] directing the Foundation's engagement with the region, including innovative financing partnerships to support global immunization campaigns[2] and global health R&D.[3]
In her personal life, she has been involved in two high-profile lawsuits - one a criminal case in Japan, after being the victim of sexual assault, and the other a civil case in the United States, involving a computer of hers that had disappeared.
In 1998, Campbell was the victim of a sexual attack in Japan. Her pursuit of justice as a result of this attack received significant coverage in English and Japanese-language press in Japan and North America.
In 2007, she filed a $54 million civil lawsuit against Best Buy for having lost her computer, which, she said, contained important identity information. This legal action also received extensive media coverage, including an appearance she made on The Today Show, in 2008.[4][5][6]
Campbell's writings have appeared in The Japan Times[7] and the Japan Policy Research Institute Critique'.[8]
