Editor, digital content creator, and project director. I spend my time managing community, gender equality, and women driven projects throughout the Middle East, both in the field and within digital spaces.
As a co-founder of the Jordan-based women NGO Tatawor, I spent over a decade advancing projects focused on advocacy, gender equality, women’s rights, and economic empowerment, working at a grassroots level to provide local communities the tools to create a change in the governance mode and decision making mechanisms. I am also the co-founder of Akhbarek.com
