Our Trainers

I am an expert in humanitarian emergencies and an experienced humanitarian trainer from the MENA region, more specifically from Jordan. With my 14 years of professional experience, I specialize in humanitarian and emergency coordination, including safe programming, safety and security, and humanitarian access. I have worked extensively in emergency contexts across various international NGOs and UN agencies, with assignments spanning the MENA region, East and West Africa, Europe, and the Asia-Pacific. I also worked in humanitarian-development nexus programming.

I am providing technical advisory services in GBV, Safeguarding, PSEA, and safety and security in humanitarian emergencies in 20+ countries, that combined with my passionate about training, adult learning, and capacity development, in the humanitarian sector, with a strong foundation in learning and development for humanitarian and emergency programming, I firmly believes in the power of knowledge sharing and its profound impact on the humanitarian field worldwide.
