Christina Nimand Hansen (formerly Pedersen; born 15 December 1982) is a Danish former team handball goalkeeper.

At the 2010 European Women's Handball Championship she reached the bronze final and placed fourth with the Danish team.[1]

She started playing handball at the age of 6 at Ajax København. She debuted for the Danish National Team in 2002, but it was first in 2007 she became a stable part of the national team.

She initially retired in 2013, but made a comeback for FIF in 2014 for a few matches due to Søs Søby getting injured.
